Date: Mon, 16 Oct 2006 09:40:03 -0400 From: "Hammer, Jack" <Jack_Hammer@...ptec.com> To: "Nick Piggin" <nickpiggin@...oo.com.au>, "Nishanth Aravamudan" <nacc@...ibm.com> Cc: "LKML" <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> Subject: RE: ips: scheduling while atomic in 2.6.18 The MDELAY/msleep changes are part of a critical bug fix, so if you change them all back, you're re-introducing the bug. Without them, you can cause a lock up ( caught by the 2.6 softlock watchdog ) during a reset. But you should still try it, and maybe we have to think of another solution if this is causing your problem. Let me know what happens if you change it back ...

Thanks for the report. The messages are caused by this commit (cc'ed author): http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=c ommit;h=15084a4a63bc300c18b28a8a9afac870c552abce Not sure whether they are the cause of your hang, but the from the changelog it doesn't look like the commit was strictly a bugfix so you could try changing msleep calls in the driver back to MDELAY. > > ips 0000:0d:06.0: Resetting controller. > BUG: scheduling while atomic: ipssend/0x00000001/11199 [<c0352e4d>] > schedule+0x8ad/0x920 [<c03550ef>] _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0xf/0x30 > [<c011c443>] release_console_sem+0x203/0x220 [<c011caee>] > vprintk+0x29e/0x380 [<c0126ab0>] lock_timer_base+0x20/0x50 > [<c03550ef>] _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0xf/0x30 [<c0126c0c>] > __mod_timer+0x9c/0xc0 [<c03536c7>] schedule_timeout+0x57/0xd0 > [<c0125fb0>] process_timeout+0x0/0x10 [<c0126e58>] msleep+0x28/0x40 > [<c02ba521>] ips_reset_copperhead_memio+0x21/0x60 > [<c02b803c>] __ips_eh_reset+0x17c/0x380 [<c028f880>] > scsi_done+0x0/0x30 [<c02bba2e>] ips_queue+0x17e/0x1b0 [<c028fdc1>] > scsi_dispatch_cmd+0x161/0x260 [<c028f880>] scsi_done+0x0/0x30 > [<c0292a90>] scsi_times_out+0x0/0x80 [<c0294ea7>] > scsi_request_fn+0x187/0x2f0 [<c0212b0e>] > blk_execute_rq_nowait+0x6e/0xc0 [<c0294c11>] > scsi_execute_async+0x2b1/0x3c0 [<c0294620>] scsi_end_async+0x0/0x60 > [<c02c7940>] sg_cmd_done+0x0/0x260 [<c02c7e28>] > sg_common_write+0x288/0x700 [<c02c7940>] sg_cmd_done+0x0/0x260 > [<c02c9aec>] sg_write+0x21c/0x300 [<c0350000>] > sunrpc_cache_lookup+0x140/0x150 [<c0177837>] do_ioctl+0x87/0x90 > [<c01638b5>] vfs_write+0xb5/0x190 [<c016408b>] sys_write+0x4b/0x80 > [<c010329b>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb > BUG: scheduling while atomic: ipssend/0x00000001/11199 [<c0352e4d>] > schedule+0x8ad/0x920 [<c03550ef>] _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0xf/0x30 > [<c011c443>] release_console_sem+0x203/0x220 [<c0126ab0>] > lock_timer_base+0x20/0x50 [<c03550ef>] > _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0xf/0x30 [<c0126c0c>] __mod_timer+0x9c/0xc0 > [<c03536c7>] schedule_timeout+0x57/0xd0 [<c0125fb0>] > process_timeout+0x0/0x10 [<c0126e58>] msleep+0x28/0x40 [<c02ba537>] > ips_reset_copperhead_memio+0x37/0x60 > [<c02b803c>] __ips_eh_reset+0x17c/0x380 [<c028f880>] > scsi_done+0x0/0x30 [<c02bba2e>] ips_queue+0x17e/0x1b0 [<c028fdc1>] > scsi_dispatch_cmd+0x161/0x260 [<c028f880>] scsi_done+0x0/0x30 > [<c0292a90>] scsi_times_out+0x0/0x80 [<c0294ea7>] > scsi_request_fn+0x187/0x2f0 [<c0212b0e>] > blk_execute_rq_nowait+0x6e/0xc0 [<c0294c11>] > scsi_execute_async+0x2b1/0x3c0 [<c0294620>] scsi_end_async+0x0/0x60 > [<c02c7940>] sg_cmd_done+0x0/0x260 [<c02c7e28>] > sg_common_write+0x288/0x700 [<c02c7940>] sg_cmd_done+0x0/0x260 > [<c02c9aec>] sg_write+0x21c/0x300 [<c0350000>] > sunrpc_cache_lookup+0x140/0x150 [<c0177837>] do_ioctl+0x87/0x90 > [<c01638b5>] vfs_write+0xb5/0x190 [<c016408b>] sys_write+0x4b/0x80 > [<c010329b>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb > BUG: scheduling while atomic: ipssend/0x00000001/11199 [<c0352e4d>] > schedule+0x8ad/0x920 [<c0352947>] schedule+0x3a7/0x920 [<c0126ab0>] > lock_timer_base+0x20/0x50 [<c03550ef>] > _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0xf/0x30 [<c0126c0c>] __mod_timer+0x9c/0xc0 > [<c03536c7>] schedule_timeout+0x57/0xd0 [<c03550ef>] > _spin_unlock_irqrestore+0xf/0x30 [<c0125fb0>] > process_timeout+0x0/0x10 [<c0126e58>] msleep+0x28/0x40 [<c02ba5e0>] > ips_init_copperhead_memio+0x20/0x150 > [<c0125fb0>] process_timeout+0x0/0x10 [<c02ba542>] > ips_reset_copperhead_memio+0x42/0x60 > [<c02b803c>] __ips_eh_reset+0x17c/0x380 [<c028f880>] > scsi_done+0x0/0x30 [<c02bba2e>] ips_queue+0x17e/0x1b0 [<c028fdc1>] > scsi_dispatch_cmd+0x161/0x260 [<c028f880>] scsi_done+0x0/0x30 > [<c0292a90>] scsi_times_out+0x0/0x80 [<c0294ea7>] > scsi_request_fn+0x187/0x2f0 [<c0212b0e>] > blk_execute_rq_nowait+0x6e/0xc0 [<c0294c11>] > scsi_execute_async+0x2b1/0x3c0 [<c0294620>] scsi_end_async+0x0/0x60 > [<c02c7940>] sg_cmd_done+0x0/0x260 [<c02c7e28>] > sg_common_write+0x288/0x700 [<c02c7940>] sg_cmd_done+0x0/0x260 > [<c02c9aec>] sg_write+0x21c/0x300 [<c0350000>] > sunrpc_cache_lookup+0x140/0x150 [<c0177837>] do_ioctl+0x87/0x90 > [<c01638b5>] vfs_write+0xb5/0x190 [<c016408b>] sys_write+0x4b/0x80 > [<c010329b>] syscall_call+0x7/0xb > > Thanks, > Nish > -- SUSE Labs, Novell Inc.
