Hmmm. What wireless problem?

 echo blacklist wl12xx_sdio  /etc/modeprobe.d/blacklist-wireless.conf
 reboot

The IGEPv2 doesn't use wl12xx; it uses the libertas (it's got a Marvell
88w8686 onboard).

Just to be clear, wifi works fine on this device, out of the box.

Isn't there a way to trigger a backtrace or dump of the hung kworker task?

PS: I just boot-tested the latest 1003 kernel and it's working fine; in
fact, I now get a flashing green light when the box is on, whereas
before I used to get a dead led. The U-Boot issues I pointed out earlier
are still there, though.

It seems that this issue was fixed with 1003 as soon as we disabled
cpu_freq for both Omap 3 and Omap 4. Didn't confirm, but that would be
the main change regarding Omap 3.

For Omap 4 the wlan driver was also causing similar issues.

 Hi there,
 
 I'm playing around with the latest snapshots on my IGEPv2 and I'm
 seeing a recurring message posted to the console while using it:

 I'd like to find out what that task is meant to be doing and why it is
 getting blocked. I haven't been able to notice anything negative in my
 use of the system (downloading and installing packages, editing files,
 running cpuburn and stress).

Same happens from time to time on PandaBoard.

I've also seen it on my beagle Xm from time to time. Agree, be nice to
figure out who is

I have only seen this with the wireless problem already noted.  Can
you see if blacklisting the wireless driver fixes the problem?

echo blacklist wl12xx_sdio  /etc/modeprobe.d/blacklist-wireless.conf

Hi John,

echo blacklist wl12xx_sdio  /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-wireless.conf
reboot

Doesn't change the behavior on my Xm.

Anything else you want me to try just hollar.

Regards,
Tom
