Hello Hannes!
Could the system instability appear (for example), because the
events thread which runs on the same CPU like my kernel thread,
doesn't process the works which are in its work queue? Or are all
works of the default queue delivered to other events threads on
the free CPUs?
I am

Hi mulayadi,
I experienced the same problem .Kernel thread is not giving any chance to

Hello Mulyadi!
first of all, what do you poll there? some register status? could the
device just yield an interrupt?
I poll a message queue. The Dolphin SCI network card's kernel modules
have a message queue implementation and I call their receive function:

Hello Johannes!
You don't give the scheduler a chance to run. If you sleep, the
scheduler will run and be able to deliver the signal and this is why it
works then.
Spinning like this is bad. That should actually freeze a UP machine if
I do not miss something.
The driver is _only_ for
