我是Linux编程的初学者，在练习时尝试了一些设备驱动程序示例。
下面的代码（精简版tiny_tty.c）使用insmod完美加载，我可以在/proc/tty/drivers，/proc/modules中看到它，并且设备节点在/ dev下创建。当我尝试写入像echo "abcd" > /dev/ttyms0这样的设备文件时（我希望这很好）或读起来像cat /dev/ttyms0，内核会在屏幕上出现呼叫追踪。我在Ubuntu下的内核3.5.0上。不幸的是，我无法捕捉到痕迹，因为恐慌时我没有选择，只能使用电源按钮重新启动。我相信计时器的一些问题在这里，因为跟踪显示在顶部的一条线说：
"*kernel bug at /build/buildd/linux-3.5.0/kernel/timer.c:901*“，然后是通话跟踪，然后是
"*EIP is at add_timer+0x18/0x20*"
以下是完整的代码。任何指导都非常值得期待。
10May2013 ：我尝试在open函数中初始化计时器，下面这次是“内核恐慌 - 不同步：在发生中断恐慌时发生致命异常，切换回文本控制台”的调用跟踪：
