Re: Task switching problem


Dear Sir!

AL> It looks like you get into trouble at 152, 153. There is a
AL> SCHED_UNLOCK missing.
Let's take a look at the group of lines 152-160
The same situation is at lines 139-147, 66-74, 35-43, but there
everything is ok.

AL> You might also want to enabled more instrumentation calls.
all the instrumentations are enabled

AL> However its hard to tell what is going on here. You could change 
AL> packages/kernel/current/include/sched.inl
AL> CYG_INSTRUMENT_SCHED(LOCK,get_sched_lock(),0);
AL> to
AL> CYG_INSTRUMENT_SCHED(LOCK,get_sched_lock(),__builtin_return_address(0));
AL> and the same with the UNLOCK call. You can then get the address of
AL> what called the lock and unlock functions.
ok, done, got this:

167 01     0x1da1 INTR_RESTORE     0x00000000 0x00000000

here all stops, no more messages, processor hangs (?)

Function radiorx_data() works with mutex, unlocks it (...149-151).
Then radiorx_data() returns to radioErx_proc() thread function.
radioErx_proc() begins waiting on flag (152-157), so it's correct
number of SCHED_LOCKs.

Can't understand anything :(((
