RTEMS shell not always waiting for termination

[dufault]

Sometimes two shells startup at the console and they get every other character of input. Observe, this is after a reset:

RTEMS SHELL (Ver.1.0-FRC):/dev/console. Mar 11 2011. 'help' to list commands.
/ #
RTEMS SHELL (Ver.1.0-FRC):/dev/console. Mar 11 2011. 'help' to list commands.

I start the shell up like this, so it shouldn't return until it terminates:

while(1) {

rtems_shell_init(

"SHLC", /* task name */
RTEMS_MINIMUM_STACK_SIZE * 16, /* task stack size */
100, /* task priority */
"/dev/console", /* device name */
false, /* run forever */
true, /* wait for shell to terminate */
0 /* login check function,

• use NULL to disable
• login check */

);

This is a problem because I typically start my applications with a shell with an optional startup file, and when this happens my application doesn't start right, and it sometimes fails in the field. It happens very rarely. This is happening in 4.11, but it also happened in 4.10.

I know this isn't much to go on, I'll try to watch for more clues.

I haven't seen this in a long time. I'd like to close it not reproducible but don't see that, I'll choose INVALID.
