Android Kernel Debugging

Android Kernel questions are rare on [SO], asa nobody else has answered I have provided my findings on this issue. Unfortunately I don’t have a nexus one to test this on so this answer is not intended as a step by step resolution of you problem, but should point you in the right direction of where to look.

The only useful resource I have found on this problem is in a LKML patch by Dongdong Deng, so it is unlikely a configuration issue as these are usually abundant and well-publicized.

This indicates that there is a problem with your kernel build. I would be tempted to start again with the latest versions of CM and see if the problem just goes away.

Failing that, try reporting this to the cyanogen team and see if this is a known issue or has a simple workaround.

As a last resort you could try the patch if the versions are compatible. The only alternative is to roll up your sleeves and start hacking the CM kernel to incorporate the patch.

Good luck.
