[uClinux-dev] BUG: scheduling while atomic

Hi Arnon, Assaf,

I see one problem in the modules/ixp425/net-2.1/ixp400_eth.c code.
It is using the define CONFIG_ARCH_IXDPG425 for conditionals, it
should be CONFIG_MACH_IXDPG425.

At least everything seems to work fine with no preemption after
that is fixed.

Now with preempt enabled I get all sorts of oops if I have the
IXP425 ETHDB option enabled. But it seems to run clean if I
disable that. (You can disable it in the modules options config,
in the ixp400 driver section). Is that consistent with what
you see?

So it sure looks like a problem in the EthDB handling code.

Regards
Greg
