Hi, 1) changing to msleep_interruptible() did not change the situation. 2) What is strange is that I *do* see the printk messages of kernel_init/kernel_exit, but I do not see the printk messages in the thread function, thread_function() (also before the first mslee()/msleep_interruptible() ). And they are the same printk level; I also tried with printk(KERN_ERR.. in the thread_function(), but it did not help.
Please don't top post, ok :) BTW, maybe you don't such message because your thread hasn't running yet. IMHO you need to use kthread_run().
