We are running 2.6.14 kernel (patched) on an Octeon based hardware with multiple cores.
This lockup was detected due to which there were complaints from the scheduler, and eventually the card rebooted.
I need help in finding the probable scenario which might have lead to this lockup.
Looks like the same write_lock_bh has been taken by multiple cores successfully (Does this disable process preemption and bh processing?). The cores have proceeded to allot skb headroom for udp operation. This might have lead to spin-locking and eventually the delay in scheduling.
Appreciate your insights that might help me track the issue.
Apologies for pasting a slightly longer call trace :)
