Please find attached further information regarding the
specifics of this problem. Basically since upgrading from 2.4.21 to 2.6.0-test2 the use of my PCMCIA wireless card (Cisco Aironet 350) has been non-existent as it locks up the laptop. The only recourse is total cold-boot power cycling without the PCMCIA card inserted.

Please Cc me as I am not subscribe to the ML as I'm already on
enough high volume lists.

Problem with Wireless PCMCIA card insertion.

[2.]
Sony Vaio PCG-C1MWP was working fine with 2.4.21 using either Cisco Aironet 350 or Orinoco Gold PCMCIA 802.11b wireless card. Upgraded to 2.6.0-test2 to test it out and everything works but PCMCIA. When inserting a card system locks up after logging entries like those in section 5. PCMCIA cards are good as the operate properly under 2.4 and in other machines. Originally compiled with pre-emptive code but later disabled to try and remove that as cause of problem but problem still remained without pre-emptive code included.

None really as all it takes is inserting the PCMCIA 802.11b wireless card into the computer to lock it up.

Jul 28 18:02:10 vaio kernel: airo:  Probing for PCI adapters
Jul 28 18:02:10 vaio kernel: kobject_register failed for airo (-17)

This looks like an error in airo. For starters, it doesn't unregister its PCI driver structure when the module removed, so when it is inserted the next time, you get this complaint.

(You can only have one driver called "airo" registered with the device model.)

Oops, it seems to be scheduling from timer context. That's pretty bad. I guess this is the culpret:

static u16 issuecommand(struct airo_info *ai, Cmd *pCmd, Resp *pRsp) {
...

                if (!in_interrupt() && (max_tries & 255) == 0)
                        schedule();

...
}

My bad it is a CardBus bridge using the yenta socket

I am currently compiling -test2-bk4 to test it out and see if
there is any change... I did notice a patch to airo.c in it... I'll advise if there is any change good or bad...

This must be active only if CONFIG_PREEMPT is set as the atomic
errors did seem to cease after recompiling with CONFIG_PREEMPT not being set...

In reply to Russell King

After recompiling with 2.6.0-test2-bk4 I am still unable to use
the CardBus 802.11b wireless cards (don't know about any other cardbus device as this is currently the only device I'm using). The Orinoco Gold will load the module and does not crash but it also does not allow it to be fully usuable. It is unable to be configured for the ESSID and WEP key. The Cisco Aironet 350 locks the whole system up but now with -bk4 does not produce any entries in /var/log/kern.log as I was finding before.

Regards,
Jeremy
