Hi, This patchset removes all spinlocks (except the LEDs lock for now) from b43. There are no known races or bugs added by this patchset. Please test it a lot, so we can ensure there are no regressions.
It sometimes crashes for me in the lockdep code on module unload, but I'm not really sure whether that is a b43 or lockdep bug. Please test test test. :) Apply the patchset in this order to wireless-testing.git: http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-testing/20090823-1442/patches/001-fix-irq-thread-wakeup.patch http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-testing/20090823-1442/patches/002-b43-threaded-irq-handler.patch http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-testing/20090823-1442/patches/003-b43-remove-tx-lock.patch http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-testing/20090823-1442/patches/004-b43-remove-queue-locks.patch http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-testing/20090823-1442/patches/005-b43-remove-pio-rx-work.patch http://bu3sch.de/patches/wireless-testing/20090823-1442/patches/006-b43-remove-shm-lock.patch -- Greetings, Michael. _______________________________________________ Bcm43xx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/bcm43xx-dev
