Hi,

This rang a bell for me. I've had similar issues on my automon project using the ts7390. Think it was something to do with the sd-card driver, any time a write occured "the world would stop".

Have a look at

Les, thanks for your response. I forgot to mention that I also see this periodically at the shell prompt, where no characters are echoed for a few seconds while typing. The characters are not lost, simply delayed in being echoed.

This is becoming a significant concern.

This seems to happen irregularly, but generally every 1 to 10 minutes. I suspect that there is some daemon process running periodically that is hogging all userspace CPU, since running 'top' doesn't show anything, but does also appear to go dead for brief periods (although this is very difficult to assess for sure).

I suspect that the problem exists even without the CANbus, but the CANbus interface allows me to see the problem, as I am grabbing time-stamped messages from the bus, and I know those timestamps are accurate.
