linux - rmmod时 panic

您好，我是内核开发人员的新手，

创建了一个简单的程序:

#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/init.h>
#include <linux/sched.h>
#include <linux/kthread.h>

MODULE_LICENSE("Dual BSD/GPL");


int messager(void*);
struct task_struct* kthrstr;

static int start_module(void)
{
    printk(KERN_INFO "Loading the messager\n");

    kthrstr = kthread_create(messager,NULL,"MESSAGER");
    wake_up_process(kthrstr);
    return 0;
}

static void stop_module(void)
{
    printk(KERN_INFO "Unloading the messager\n");
    kthread_stop(kthrstr);
}

int messager(void* varg)
{
    daemonize("MESSAGER");
    allow_signal(SIGKILL);

    while(1)
    {
        printk(KERN_INFO "Timeout: Hello");
        set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
        schedule_timeout(10 * HZ);
        if (signal_pending(current))
            break;
    }
    return 0;
}

module_init(start_module);
module_exit(stop_module);

该模块已正确加载，并且消息也按预期显示在syslog中。但是当使用rmmod卸载模块时，它会出现如下所示的困惑情况。请帮助我确定发生了什么错误以及如何纠正:

最佳答案

您的模块崩溃是因为对daemonize()的调用导致稍后的kthread_stop()调用无需等待就返回。

此外，如here所述，kthread_stop()不会向线程发送信号，而是使kthread_should_stop()返回true。简而言之，将您的代码更改为在while (!kthread_should_stop())上循环，并删除daemonize(此处不必要和危险)和allow_signal调用。
