Do you mean this situation? CPU 0 | CPU 1 | rfcomm_run() | kthread_stop() ... | if (!test_bit(KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP)) | | set_bit(KTHREAD_SHOULD_STOP) | wake_up_process() wait_woken() | wait_for_completion() set_current_state(INTERRUPTIBLE) | if (!WQ_FLAG_WOKEN) | schedule_timeout() | | Now both tasks are sleeping forever. If yes, then wakeups from signals don't work either, right?
