BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context

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

 



Hi all,
I am working on android, linux kernel version: 2.6.35.11
 
I am getting this following error message. I know it occurs when u call a sleeping function in atomic context.
As far as i knew the entire stack of functions,nothing is atomic context(these are standard platform dev add functions...)
 
Now i want to know these things..
1) Is there any method to know, when and where this atomic context started?
           (i put a log in the "msm_bus_fabric_probe" function, to check whether it is atomic or not using "in_atomic()"..it is giving '0', and also i read that in_atomic wont always work well in all cases in the header file)
 
2) Can we neglect this warning, is it very important? because lot of similer cases,(where "clk_get_sys" is called)
are working fine. only this thing is showing warning message. can we overlook this?
 
pls tell me
