Subject: Problem with SMP
Date: 18 Apr 2002 14:18:59 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20020418141859.27175.qmail@webmail1.rediffmail.com> (raw)
Hello,
I have got an application level code and driver(kernel) level
code.
Application level code contains the whole logic of the device
driver.driver is very light weight as it just provides interface
of the device to the application.
The above application and kernel level code works perfectly on
uni-processor machine.
To port the code on SMP environment I havent made any changes to
the application level code and just put some spinlocks for global
variables in the driver (kernel level) code.
Now the application is not functioning consistently on SMP
system.
The application hangs in between but the system remains stable and
the time of the application failure is also not fixed thats why i
m finding it difficult to trace the bug.
Now can u tell me whether i need to modify the application level
code also to make the whole driver SMP compliant.
Thanx and regds
Ajit Shrivastav
