hi, I build the linux-2.6.11 kernel using the default kernle config file in configs directory and just config "<M> RAID support". When i use "mdadm -S /dev/md0" to stop md, everything is ok! But when i "rmmod md", kernel prints messages as follow. Debug: sleeping function called from invalid context at kernel/workqueue.c:264 in_atomic():1, irqs_disabled():0 [<c013bbf4>] flush_workqueue+0x1a/0x27 [<c029ec2f>] blk_cleanup_queue+0x30/0x78 [<c021eb5d>] kref_put+0x29/0x8c [<e11e50d1>] mddev_put+0xad/0x133 [md] [<c021df71>] kobject_put+0x1e/0x22 [<e11ec802>] md_exit+0x1ce/0x2b3 [md] [<c014a059>] __try_stop_module+0x27/0x3e [<c014a098>] try_stop_module+0x28/0x2d [<c014a248>] sys_delete_module+0x13b/0x180 [<c0108ac4>] do_syscall_trace+0x10b/0x14c [<c010384d>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb I add some debug message in the md.c and find "md_exit" function calls "mddev_put" function. After "mddev_put" function calls "blk_put_queue(mddev->queue);", the kernel prints message as above. I have noticed that "do_md_stop" function calls "mddev->pers->stop(mddev);", and "stop" function has called "blk_sync_queue(mddev->queue);" Would anybody give me some suggestions?
