--- Comment #3 from Mike Isely <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 2008-04-13 01:41:39 PST --- Interesting. I was unaware of spin_lock_bh(), but having looked at it now I agree. If I had seen it before, I would have used it. But for what it's worth, I didn't use spin_lock_irqsave() without some care first. This spin lock is only ever taken for very short reasonably deterministic, non-blocking intervals in the DRM code (as part of taking a much heavier-weight lock). So I felt that any latency impact from interrupt blockage in these cases should be negligible and thus I didn't really look for a different (potentially more complex solution). -Mike -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.freedesktop.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
