usb-serial ipaq kernel problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, 

We are having problems with the usb-serial ipaq driver in 2.6.16 (debian
backports 2.6.16-1-686, but also reproducible with self-compiled
kernel.org kernel)

Sometimes, we get the following on disconnect:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 723d4ec3
 printing eip:

I don't know enough about the tty system to find the problem, but it
seems to me that the tty structure might be released too soon.
We have a hotplug script that starts ppp on connect, and we can
reproduce this by repeatedly plugging and unplugging the ipaq.
