Odd. Did it hit some "may_sleep()" test in a driver that is hidden by preempt being off? Otherwise I don't see how/why preempt should fail in a board-specific manner.. Linus

The board hangs early during boot and the usual way of collecting early console doesn't seem to work when attempted (I haven't tried personally). It's one of the major non-SMP platforms covered by tests. I'd be surprised if it turns out to be truly _board_ specific (and rather specific to OMAP3), but we don't have enough data yet. Chances are it either shuffles some timing around or indeed hits a may_sleep() test somewhere. (I just realized I might have missed to attribute Guillaume in the revert patch. Sorry about that). -Olof -Olof

Sorry about that). Looks like we're missing the stdout-path for earlycon, maybe try with the following patch? I can't find my Beagleboard-xm right now, time to clean-up a bit I guess. At least omap3-evm, logicpd-torpedo and n900 all boot with PREEMPT.

To follow up on this, it turned out to be an issue where the kernel outgrew the location it was loaded to, and overwrite the device tree on decompression. So, not a code issue. It's a known fragile aspect on some of the u-boot setups, and something I've been hit by myself on my farm a few times. Still, for now we'll keep PREEMPT off until next merge window. -Olof

So more testing is probably needed in Linux next before enabling CONFIG_PREEMPT again. Regards, Tony
