By the way, to follow-up, look at this: http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0007.3/0548.html Apparently, the reason there is no locking in walking the chain is that someone removes notifiers from a notifier. I still think that calls to notifiers have to be guarded from the outside, just because the inside is such a mess. -- Pete ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ [email protected] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
