Hello everyone,
Greetings. I have tried the following kernels and found the problem
to occur on all of them with high resolution timer enabled
(1) mainline stable 3.0.1 kernel but with Hemant Pedanekar's patch
(http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-omap/msg50742.html) and by
disabling 32KHz Timer
One thing I forgot to mention: For my tests, I did modify the original
cyclictest to check for return codes for the APIs (and errno's on
failure and print them at the end) and both clock_gettime and
clock_nanosleep returned 0 (success), when the actual failure
happened. So, the APIs did not fail
