Why can't we sleep in an ISR?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a very basic doubt here ... what makes it impossible to sleep
in an ISR? I mean, I know that the kernel preemption is disabled and
the kernel will panic, but I could not understand why?

TIA,

LL
