Hi All,
The problem whose shutdown is impossible in 2.4.18-27 has occurred.
2.4.18-27 is Kernel upgrade of Red Hat 8.0.
The ttyS1 is used as the serial console in my environment.
If a shutdown is performed, it will stop at mgetty.
The stack trace extracted by sysrq is as follows.
mgetty S 00000003 0 25524 1 20598 (L-TLB)
Call Trace: [<c0123c9d>] schedule_timeout [kernel] 0xad (0xc2415e28))

[<c0109147>] system_call [kernel] 0x33 (0xc2415fc0))
When tty_wait_until_sent() is investigated,
I think that it does not escape from the following loops.
do {
#ifdef TTY_DEBUG_WAIT_UNTIL_SENT
printk(KERN_DEBUG "waiting %s...(%d)\n", tty_name(tty, buf),
tty->driver.chars_in_buffer(tty));
#endif
set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
if (signal_pending(current))
goto stop_waiting;
if (!tty->driver.chars_in_buffer(tty))
break;
timeout = schedule_timeout(timeout);
} while (timeout);
I want to hear everybody's opinion. Please let me know your idea.
Regards,
Haruo
