hi, I am working on kernel threads the distribution is Montavista 3 (linux 2.4 kernel).My problem i wake up the kernel thread inside an interrupt. But the thread doesnot wakeup all the time as soon as i wake it up. what could be done so that the thread wakes up as soon as it is woken from the interrupt. the interrupt arrives every 8msec. the thread on waking reads 64 bytes from a file and writes it to pheripheral chip(fpga).and goes to sleep. plz reply ASAP. regards vinay
