Hi all and sorry in advance for my questions. I'd like to submit you a problem I'm working on since a week. During the boot the linux kernel hangs because of a kernel panic. The errors showed are: ... Machine check in kernel mode Caused by (from SRR1=41000): Transfer error ack signal Oops: machine check, sig: 7 [...] Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! Rebooting in 180 seconds..

Hi I want to know the best software tool for comparing the differences in the linux kernel. Actually I have STM32 microcontroller based development board for which I got the BSP in which the Linux Kernel is present. The version of the BSP of the linux kernel is 2.6.32 I downloaded the original kernel with same version from kernel.org Now I am trying to extract the differences betwee...

I am using Linux kernel 2.6.28 on at91sam9263, using arm-none-eabi-gcc (also tried arm-linux-gcc-4.3.3). when I load kernel its show me following message and kernel get crash.

Hi, I'm looking at taking a contract, but this is one kernel I've never heard of. Probing the web seems fruitless. Person I talked with claims that this is actually the trade name of the kernel. It's running on a PPC 860 under the GNU compiler ... Any background or a URL greatly appreciated. -D

I've recently upgraded a ppc405 build for a Virtex 4 device from kernel 2.6.15 (arch/ppc) to 2.6.31 (arch/powerpc) and the size of the image has increased from about 900k to 1.4M. As far as I can tell I've pretty much the same config options set. The 2.6.15 kernel was straight from the kernel mainline with some xilinx drivers hacked in, the .31 is straight from git.xilinx.com with nothing ...

Hi, I compiled the kernel image using buildroot for the at91rm9200 development kit (at91rm9200-dk). And I am trying to boot up the kernel using u-boot. I have tried two ways of booting it up. 1. Using bootm command (after downloading uImage): But though u-boot successfully identifies the image, the kernel does not boot up. Here is what I see on console: [/START] U-Boot> bootm 20008000

Hi, I am trying to redirect kernel message to serial console. I am trying to modify LCD device driver for cirrus EP9307 board. We are using 2.6.8.1 kernel and reboot as bootloader. I have enabled support for serial console in kernel config using menuconfig. The default console is set to tty0 which is lcd in our case. How can i change this to ttys0(uart1). On net there is some informatio...

Hi. I'm looking for a 32-bit kernel with preemptive multitasking (realtime is not required). It should be simple & lightweight, and be written in hardware independant C (with full sourcecode). Considering that my project requires a TCP/IP stack, I would prefer a kernel for which such support modules have already been ported. This is for replacing an 8-bit system to PowerPC. While I do...

Hi All, I want to compile vanila kernel (2.6.23-14) for ARM920T MCU. It should be a XIP kernel. In menuconfig I have set 0x10020000 physical XIP address. After compiling I see, that my kernel binary is linked to 0xBF020000 address. Auto-generated linker script (arch/arm/kernel/vmlinux.lds) starts with these lines: SECTIONS { . = ((((0xc0000000)) - 16*1048576) + ((0x10020000) & 0x000ffff...

Hi all, We are porting linux on to a PPC750 Cxe based board. We are successful enough to get the kernel messages on to the serial console. Following is the console ouput on the hyperterminal... No output is printed after the message "Freeing unused kernel memory: 248k init" But kernel is still alive. It is not hanging as well. Hope you can throw light on this. Regards Kiran Kuma...

Hi, My RTOS has hooks that let the "kernel" ask tasks (forget how that is defined) to voluntarily shed resources (time, memory, power). This lets the kernel (actually, a "special" user-land task that makes decisions *for* the kernel) throttle back the demands placed on the *fixed* resources to better adjust to the current demands placed on them. So, if some "new" task needs to be spaw...

hi all, I'm wondering what are the main parameters when talking about kernel performance...and when I say kernel I mean basic stuff, like context switching, blocking time, time for finding task of the highest priority etc... I am familiar with following parameters: -interrupt latency(which is, as I understand, directly proportional to length of sections of code where interrupts are disabled...

Hi all, I just started to develop Linux OS for arm920t processor. I want to build very simple and quick kernel, because I need real-time operations. I have compiled 2.6.23 kernel (XIP, 1.1MB), have wrotten simple bootloader (1.5KB). I use uClibc and buildroot toolchain. I want to start linux kernel as quick as possible after power on (less that 1s is wanted). I will disable console, will ru...

We have a number of systems based on the ppc core in a Virtex 4 FX12. The system has 4MB flash RAM for program storage and 32MB RAM and uses one of the EDK-supplied Ethernet cores for comms (temac). Some time ago I ported a 2.6.15 kernel onto it and we've been running with that ever since. The system boots with a small bootloader which loads uboot which in turn loads the Linux kernel. Th...

I have to connect ADV7280-M (contained in the EVAL-ADV7280MEBZ board) board to Rock Pi 4B SoC. I have recompiled the kernel with added adv7180.c driver. The procedure for recompilation of the kernel I have taken from: https://wiki.radxa.com/Rockpi4/dev/kernel-4.4 After that I had to add ADV7280-M to the device tree. /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { model = "RO
