Hi Arjan, Thanks again. I guess you defined the function modify_timer to return void and you have run the driver only once. We have done the same. But on the second run it generates the oops. We have tried to delete the timer in release function in the driver and then there is no OOPS but we are not sure about the outcome. Any pointer will be highly appreciated. ~Abu. Abu M.
