A pretty useless signal conversion module it seems creating a big mess for a single interrupt line :) > > I'm not against having a flag, but this should be done less convoluted > > and have proper names which make the use case clear along with a good > > technical explanation of the flag in the comment. > > Ok, at this point do you think that a patch in the core could be > useful or is it better to stick with modifying the unmask callback? Not sure, really, but I tend to a core patch. Though we really want to know whether the issue is threaded only or not. If it's a general issue then this wants to go into unmask_irq() itself and not into an extra unmask_threaded_irq() function.
