Hi, In RT Linux when I try to run my module my kernel crashes and i get an Oops message So can someone explain what this trace down there means ? Where do I get information regarding these messages, how can I learn to understand them ? and debug it??

Try using ksymoops to display you the readable backtrace of the stack. Have you tried CONFIG_KALLSYMS?

Not sure ... but are you doing something that is trying to sleep in atomic context? (try using in_atomic()) Regards, Rajat -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel. Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/kernelnewbies/ FAQ: http://kernelnewbies.org/faq/
