Subject: Trying to understand alloc_skb()
Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2005 17:38:01 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9b7ca6570504120138738b554f@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hiya folks,

I'm wondering if anyone could help me out with problem I have in alloc_skb().

My problem is that, kernel dies with "alloc_skb called nonatomically
from interrupt c00ba718" message. After browsing mailing list, I think
its to do with not providing it with enough locks prior.

Question is, what kind of lock should I be providing ?

Since I have no clue as to which lock does what, I really need some
good advise as to where to start looking.

Could someone tell me the inside story on this ?
