I have a process in my linux kernel driver that takes a long time (flashing the device via ethtool's flash device function). Because it takes a long time, I get kernel soft lock warnings in the log. Is there a way to create a LOW priority thread? I've tried kthread_create and even using a workqueue_struct, but those aren't low priority.
 


Hi all,
I am trying to use ethtool on my Target Board after loading Linux.
The Linux version is 2.6.31.5.
The error message displayed when I used this command is:
-sh: ethtool: not found.

I understood that I can't use ethtool command on the Target board. But, now my question is how to change my Ethernet Port's speed and duplex mode?
Please help me to get a solution.
