Hi, Speakup's selection functionality parallels that of drivers/tty/vt/selection.c. This patch set replaces speakup's implementation with calls to vt's selection code. This is one of the remaining items in our TODO file and it's needed for moving speakup out of staging. Please note that in speakup selection is set inside interrupt context of keyboard handler. Set selection code in vt happens in process context and hence expects ability to sleep. To address this, there were two options: farm out speakup's set selection into a work_struct thread, or create atomic version of vt's set_selection. These patches implement the former option. Here's a summary: Patch 1 re-arranges code in vt and exports some functions. Patch 2 replaces speakup's selection code with calls to vt's functions exported in patch 1. Thanks, Okash _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
