It starts well, but when booting the kernel I get :
The mm switch issue was specifically addressed by this patch, which is part of 2.12-01: http://git.denx.de/?p=ipipe-2.6.git;a=commit;h=c14a47630d62d0328de1957636dceb1d498f7048 However, it the last 2.6.35 patch issued was based on 2.6.35.7, not 2.6.35.11, so there is still the possibility that something went wrong while you forward ported this code. - Please check that mmu_context_nohash.c does contain the fix above as it should - Please try Richard's suggestion, i.e. moving to 2.6.36, which may give us more hints. > Badness at kernel/lockdep.c:2327 > NIP: c006e554 LR: c006e53c CTR: 000186a0 Adeos sometimes conflicts with the vanilla IRQ state tracer. I'll have a look at this. Disable CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS. -- Philippe. _______________________________________________ Xenomai-core mailing list Xenomai-core@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/xenomai-core
