call_usermodehelper hang

[Payasam Manohar]

hai all,
   I want to call a user program(script) from linux kernel.
I am using Redhat linux 9( kernel version 2.4.20-8). With the help of 
call_usermodehelper I am calling the user level program from one of the 
kernel driver. I am setting the parameters correctly.
  int call_usermodehelper(char *path, char *argv, char *envp);

 The system is hanging after giving a call trace and the error
   Code:
  <0> Kernel Panic : Aiee,Killing interrupt handler
        In interrupt handler- not syncing.

Any help is welcome.



  Thanks&Regards,

  P.Manohar.
