So having the spin_lock in _begin and the spin_unlock in _flush should be symmetric and correct. If you want to make sure, recompile with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, which should immmediately give you a huge splat in dmesg if there's anything unbalanced with locking. > I'll check all these things and come back with news (hope) :) Have fun chasing stuff :-) Cheers, Daniel > > Thanks, > > Melissa > > > > I'm totally confused about what's going on here now. > > -Daniel > > > > > crtc->state->event = NULL; > > > } > > > > > > -- > > > 2.27.0 > > > > > > > -- > > Daniel Vetter > > Software Engineer, Intel Corporation > > http://blog.ffwll.ch -- Daniel Vetter Software Engineer, Intel Corporation http://blog.ffwll.ch _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
