(Device or resource busy) error during dmix open

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

I am trying to open a handle to dmix device and it fails with (Device or resource busy) error. On further debugging I found that it fails because it cannot open the slave HW device. This is the first instance of dmix but the slave open fails because it is already busy. I am trying to understand what kind of race condition could cause this situation but I cannot think of any.

Any thoughts how I could proceed? Maybe retry open is a good solution?

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Thanks
