hi all ,
i have a machine with 256Mb of RAM.
i am using __get_free_pages{order 9} to get 2Mb memory
( want it to be continous) in a module. i am accessing
this memory in interrupt context..
my system crashes down when i access this memory in
interrupt context. during allocation i check that if
__get_free_pages fails ( pointer returned is NULL) , i
return an error.so i hope i am using memory in the
interrupt context only if __get_free_pages succeeded.
plz tell me what may be possible problem
Rgds,
pankaj
