Hi Experts,
I am facing one problem here which is one process always stuck in running state which causes the other similar process to sleep state . This causes my system in hanged state.
On doing cat /proc/<pid>wchan showing the "__init_begin" in the output.
Can you please help me here why it is getting stuck in the __init_begin API. I am using linux kernel version 2.6.17.
Also i am not facing such probelm in kernel version 2.6.39
i have seen they have given one fix inside __init_begin in the kernel version 2.6.37 . Below is the fix
diff --git a/arch/um/kernel/uml.lds.S b/arch/um/kernel/uml.lds.S
