Still, going back to this issue: even though I made make a mistake and incorrectly called kthread_stop on a (possibly) non-existent task_struct, it's not clear to me why I didn't get to see the thread function printks. If the thread function finished before reaching kthread_stop, I should be able to see them, right? The only way I can see them is by removing the call to kthread_stop altogether. This makes it seem like kthread_stop kills the new thread before it gets a chance to run, yet that goes against the description in the comments. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
