Subject: Why can't we sleep in an ISR?
Date: Mon, 14 May 2007 12:07:12 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9f1dc2cf0705132337k13aa3ccesc575d4550492a24e@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I have a very basic doubt here ... what makes it impossible to sleep
in an ISR? I mean, I know that the kernel preemption is disabled and
the kernel will panic, but I could not understand why?
TIA,
LL
