Mike, You are trying to get a new piece of cache. The message occurs when there is not one available. After the message appears the system goes into a spinlock and tries again. This continues until the request is satisfied.
This could be an indication that you have a memory leak somewhere and are not returning memory. Cal Mike Flynn wrote: > We have been hacking away on a TI 16C554 quad UART driver based on > serial.c.
