I've been having non-reproducible hangs with my wrtsl54gs for a while
now (after finally installing a serial console I got to see that these
are caused by "CPU 0 Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual
address ...". Any idea what that can come from?).
While trying to track down this problem I discovered that the watchdog
doesn't work either. Since I was running a Sep-2009 firmware
(2.6.30.7), I figured I'd first try to update it.
So I just recompiled and installed a new firmware (from the backfire SVN
branch). And the problem stays the same:
- the machine boots, which starts the busybox `watchdog' daemon.
- I "kill <pid>" the watchdog.
- I watch the "logread -f", which says:
May 28 17:28:18 oficina user.crit kernel: bcm47xx_wdt: Unexpected close, not
stopping watchdog!
May 28 17:29:17 oficina user.crit kernel: bcm47xx_wdtWatchdog will fire
soon!!!
- the machine is now frozen (including on the serial console).
I.e. it seems the reboot part is failing. Does anybody know this
problem or has some idea what it might come from? Has anybody managed
to get the watchdog to work on such a machine (or a similar one, maybe
wl500gp or some such)?
