ok, please do. i'm trying to understand your trace: > Below the trace shows i_usX2Y_usbpcm_urb_complete() running under an > alien context, and this is where jackd starts stalling: by 'alien context' do you mean softirq--4? That is the following kernel thread: 4 ? S 0:00 [softirq-high/0] handling HI_SOFTIRQ softirqs, which are the 'highprio' tasklets. > IRQ_17-308 0D..2 3411063us : deactivate_task <IRQ_17-308> (180 2) > softirq--4 0D..2 3411064us+: __schedule <IRQ_17-308> (180 101) > softirq--4 0.... 3411072us+: i_usX2Y_usbpcm_urb_complete (8 0 dd134) > softirq--4 0.... 3411078us : try_to_wake_up (c011b4ab 0 0) > softirq--4 0D..1 3411079us : __activate_task <jackd-2667> (173 1) > softirq--4 0Dn.1 3411079us : try_to_wake_up <jackd-2667> (173 101) > softirq--4 0Dn.1 3411080us : __schedule (c032a862 0 0) > jackd-2667 0D..2 3411081us+: __schedule <softirq--4> (101 173) it's running at SCHED_FIFO prio 80. it's probably this use in sound/usb/usbmidi.c: tasklet_hi_schedule(&port->ep->tasklet); so what is your observation - if i_usX2Y_usbpcm_urb_complete() is executed in this tasklet then you are seeing xruns/delays?
