- Hi Greg,
Than you for your feedback.
Indeed, flag CONFIG_PREEMPT is set in kernel config. As far as we can see, there is no issue on the thread itself.
We use VLAN tag to route the traffic specifically from the devices to our c...

Since you are using SCHED_RR I am assuming you are using CONFIG_PREEMPT in your kernel config, correct?
Does your design have any sort of network traffic shaping or advanced traffic control in place? I do not think an... - Hello,
We've built an application receiving messages from two devices at a rate of 1 message of 1440 bytes every 10 ms in a thread schedule in SCHED_RR priority 70. This is the higher priority user thread in the system.

- Fred,
Do you have /dev/mtdblock* devices? My kernel boot args have this "root=/dev/mtdblock0", so my assumption is that you will need to have the mtdblocks enabled inorder to boot from nand.

- Sorry I missed that Fred.
You can just make the change (swapping two lines) yourself for testing, or you can apply the commit via Jon's instruction.
If that fixes your problem, we can push it to our main branch.

- Hector, I'm not sure what commands you ran but the nand commands you show shouldn't have created this. It appears you've erased the u-boot part from the SPI NOR. You will need to follow the [[Reprogramming_a_Dead_Board]] guide.

Hector could you include the full boot log? It also much easier for me if you copy the text into a text file and upload that instead of taking a picture snapshot of the bootlog.
