I'm using IrCOMM as the upper IrDA layer and using PPP over it. While testing, I'm getting the following backtrace repeatedly: ===================================== BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at /data/csd_sw/spear/drives_os/amitvi/spear/kernel/linux-2.6/kernel/mutex.c:85 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 0, name: swapper Backtrace: [<c0030b48>] (dump_backtrace+0x0/0x110) from [<c0030c8c>] (dump_stack+0x18/0x1c) r6:00000000 r5:c725a038 r4:c042c000 [<c0030c74>] (dump_stack+0x0/0x1c) from [<c003b8b4>] (__might_sleep+0xc8/0xe8) [<c003b7ec>] (__might_sleep+0x0/0xe8) from [<c0332bec>] (mutex_lock+0x24/0x44) r4:c725a038 [<c0332bc8>] (mutex_lock+0x0/0x44) from [<c019f348>] (tty_unthrottle+0x1c/0x64) r4:c725a000 [<c019f32c>] (tty_unthrottle+0x0/0x64) from [<c0225b08>] (ppp_asynctty_receive+0x484/0x4a4) r5:c7816000 r4:c726a180 [<c0225684>] (ppp_asynctty_receive+0x0/0x4a4) from [<c030f944>] (ircomm_tty_data_indication+0x138/0x184) [<c030f80c>] (ircomm_tty_data_indication+0x0/0x184) from [<c030c8e8>] (ircomm_data_indication+0x7c/0xb4) r6:c7011300 r5:c726a900 r4:c7011300 [<c030c86c>] (ircomm_data_indication+0x0/0xb4) from [<c030d31c>] (ircomm_process_data+0x110/0x160) r5:c726a900 r4:c7011300 [<c030d20c>] (ircomm_process_data+0x0/0x160) from [<c030d6e0>] (ircomm_state_conn+0x60/0xec) r7:00000000 r6:00000000 r5:c726a900 r4:c7011300 [<c030d680>] (ircomm_state_conn+0x0/0xec) from [<c030d664>] (ircomm_do_event+0x6c/0x88) r6:c726a900 r5:00000009 r4:00000003 [<c030d5f8>] (ircomm_do_event+0x0/0x88) from [<c030e850>] (ircomm_ttp_data_indication+0xbc/0xf4) r7:00000002 r6:00000000 r5:c726a900 r4:c7011300 [<c030e794>] (ircomm_ttp_data_indication+0x0/0xf4) from [<c03048c0>] (irttp_do_data_indication+0x44/0x8c) r5:c726a900 r4:c79f3200 [<c030487c>] (irttp_do_data_indication+0x0/0x8c) from [<c03049b4>] (irttp_run_rx_queue+0xac/0x318) r6:c726a900 r5:00000000 r4:c79f3200 [<c0304908>] (irttp_run_rx_queue+0x0/0x318) from [<c0306194>] (irttp_data_indication+0x90/0xac) [<c0306104>] (irttp_data_indication+0x0/0xac) from [<c02f8158>] (irlmp_data_indication+0x5c/0x60) r7:c726a900 r6:c7120022 r5:c71cb300 r4:c726a900 [<c02f80fc>] (irlmp_data_indication+0x0/0x60) from [<c02fad20>] (irlmp_link_data_indication+0x2fc/0x35c) r5:c72c2280 r4:c71cb300 [<c02faa24>] (irlmp_link_data_indication+0x0/0x35c) from [<c02fc0d4>] (irlap_data_indication+0x38/0x3c) [<c02fc09c>] (irlap_data_indication+0x0/0x3c) from [<c02ff434>] (irlap_state_nrm_s+0x208/0x7e0) r6:c7214400 r5:00000001 r4:00000010 [<c02ff22c>] (irlap_state_nrm_s+0x0/0x7e0) from [<c02fced8>] (irlap_do_event+0x84/0x17c) [<c02fce54>] (irlap_do_event+0x0/0x17c) from [<c02ffeb0>] (irlap_driver_rcv+0x178/0xc34) r8:c7214400 r7:c726a900 r6:c78e7800 r5:00000001 r4:00000000 [<c02ffd38>] (irlap_driver_rcv+0x0/0xc34) from [<c0287a3c>] (__netif_receive_skb+0x348/0x39c) r8:00000000 r7:00001700 r6:c78e7800 r5:c05ee8c4 r4:c726a900 [<c02876f4>] (__netif_receive_skb+0x0/0x39c) from [<c028aec4>] (process_backlog+0x8c/0x154) [<c028ae38>] (process_backlog+0x0/0x154) from [<c028aff8>] (net_rx_action+0x6c/0x188) [<c028af8c>] (net_rx_action+0x0/0x188) from [<c0046f94>] (__do_softirq+0x84/0x118) [<c0046f10>] (__do_softirq+0x0/0x118) from [<c00472a8>] (irq_exit+0x44/0x4c) [<c0047264>] (irq_exit+0x0/0x4c) from [<c002c080>] (asm_do_IRQ+0x80/0xa0) [<c002c000>] (asm_do_IRQ+0x0/0xa0) from [<c002cb50>] (__irq_svc+0x30/0x80) Exception stack(0xc042df40 to 0xc042df88) df40: 00000000 0005317f 0005217f 60000013 c042c000 c042fcdc c046418c c042fcd0 df60: 0002661c 41069265 00026580 c042df94 600000d3 c042df88 c002e694 c002e6a0 df80: 60000013 ffffffff r5:f1100000 r4:ffffffff [<c002e670>] (default_idle+0x0/0x34) from [<c002e458>] (cpu_idle+0x60/0xa4) [<c002e3f8>] (cpu_idle+0x0/0xa4) from [<c032d5c4>] (rest_init+0x5c/0x74) r6:c0027e60 r5:c046415c r4:c0488aa4 [<c032d568>] (rest_init+0x0/0x74) from [<c0008a8c>] (start_kernel+0x278/0x2e0) [<c0008814>] (start_kernel+0x0/0x2e0) from [<00008034>] (0x8034) ===================================== On analysis, I found that this is due to the change introduced in tty_ioctl.c where the termios mutex is taken to protect against parallel throttle/unthrottle. Probably IrCOMM stack code wasn't tested before merging this patch. Please suggest what should be done with the IrCOMM protocol stack code to resolve this problem?
