I think it is a bug in the oklinux system because i have same problem as you.
the bug is in the parse_arg of arch/l4/kernel/memcpy_user_armshared.c as
following:
parse_ptabs(unsigned long address, unsigned long *offset, unsigned long
access)
{
//The bug is here. When the system tries to access the current->mm->pgd
there is a page fault. Because the pager of L_syscall thread is L_timer. But
actually L_timer just only dedicates the interrupt IPC from the kernel to the
user land. So there is kernel panic.
pte_t *ptep = lookup_pte((pgd_t *)current->mm->pgd, address);
... ...
}
In the cross_cell_demo the copy_from_user must be used but copy_from_user
invokes the parse_ptabs. And my problems is caused by parse_tabs, too which
is invoked by futex_atomic_cmpxchg_inatomic function.
About 3 days ago i found this problem. At that time i thought it's my
problem. Until now i only know where the error comes but i don't fix it yet.
Hope the okl4 guys could give us hands.
Thanks a lot.
