[Xenomai-core] switchtest FPU register error on PPC 2.6.18

2006-10-22 Thread Wolfgang Grandegger

Hello,

I just realized the error message:

  Error after context switch from task 8(rtup-8) to task
  10(rtup_ufpp-10), FPU registers were set to 1000 (maybe task
  sleeper_ufps-0)

when running switchtest on an PPC under Linux 2.6.18 with Xenomai head 
of SVN. I have attached the full output log. Can some tell me what went 
exactly wrong and where I should start looking at?


Thanks.

Wolfgang.

Are you sure you did ?

It means that after a switch from task 8 to task 10, the FPU context is
the one of task 0. So, some context switches which should have switched
the FPU did not. If you are lucky, you should get this error
systematically.

In order to investigate, you should try and reduce the number of tasks
created by switchtest. switchtest --help will tell you the list of tasks
created by switchtest by default, start from this list, and try removing
some tasks, keeping the failure. When you have the minimum set of tasks
that create the failure, try to trace the fpu switches, to see which one
does not do its job correctly.

Oh, well, ... see attachment.

OK, thanks for the hint. I forgot to mention that it only happens once 
after reboot. Re-exectution does not show the error any more.
