flexcan driver issue

[mohammedtalha]

I'm working with udoo quad (IMX6q). I've got the can bus up and running. However i have run into a similar issue referred to in this blog post

https://community.nxp.com/message/432806?q=flexcan%20bug%20atomic 

iMX6 FlexCAN generates 'BUG: scheduling while atomic' on every CAN send

[ 187.633144] BUG: scheduling while atomic: swapper/0/0/0x00000102
[ 254.513103] INFO: rcu_preempt detected stalls on CPUs/tasks: { 0} (detected by 1, t=2439 jiffies, g=4294967258, c=4294967257, q=2)
[ 254.524955] Task dump for CPU 0:
[ 254.528201] swapper/0 D 804e8630 0 0 0 0x00000002

i'm currently working with udooneo(imx6sx) and udooquad(imx6q). Applying the patch suggested in the post above  fixed the issue on imx6sx board. But on udooquad it has become intermittent. It happens sometimes on "ifconfig can0 up" or when the communication is started. Below is the patch i have applied to both imx6sx and imx6q. I'm using kernel 3.14.56-r0 (yocto poky distro).

Hi Mohammed

3.14.56 kernel not is maintained by nxp, recommended to try with official bsps

described on below link, for example L3.14.52

linux-imx - i.MX Linux kernel
