Hello,<br>
<br>
When RTEMS entries the Internal_error_Occurred() routine, it is
within the context of an ISR, according to the value of
_ISR_Nest_level.<br>
After reading the documentation on rtems_fire_after() <a
href="http://www.rtems.org/onlinedocs/doxygen/cpukit/html/group__ClassicTimer.html#gad9785a6bd78ab5a591a134d147b2bdd3">here</a>,
I realized that because my function attempts to acquire a global<br>
mutex lock within an ISR context, RTEMS will correctly lockup. Now
that I know the cause, restructuring my code should be<br>
relatively simple.<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help,<br>
