Hi, On a powerPC 32bit, I got the following debugging assertion failure: [ 733.209827] Debug: sleeping function called from invalid context at arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c:697 [ 733.210682] in_atomic():0, irqs_disabled():1 [ 733.211347] Call Trace: [ 733.211969] [D6023EB0] [C0007F84] show_stack+0x58/0x174 (unreliable) [ 733.212765] [D6023EE0] [C0022C34] __might_sleep+0xbc/0xd0 [ 733.213523] [D6023EF0] [C000D158] program_check_exception+0x1d8/0x4fc [ 733.214309] [D6023F40] [C000E744] ret_from_except_full+0x0/0x4c [ 733.215076] --- Exception: 700 at 0x102a7100 [ 733.215785] LR = 0xdb9ef04 It is caused by the line if (get_user(instword, (u32 __user *)(regs->nip))) in arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c:emulate_instruction() I am not sure, if this is an indication for a bug, or just false alarm. In case of false alarm, the debugging message should be made quiet somehow, though. -- Greetings Michael.
