[PATCH v2 5/9] staging: kpc2000: use atomic_t to assign card numbers.

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

 



Previously the next card number was assigned from a static int local
variable, which was read and later incremented.  This was not thread-
safe, so now we use an atomic_t and atomic_fetch_add instead.

Updated TODO.

 - the kpc_spi driver doesn't seem to let multiple transactions (to different instances of the core) happen in parallel...
 - The kpc_i2c driver is a hot mess, it should probably be cleaned up a ton.  It functions against current hardware though.
-- pcard->card_num in kp2000_pcie_probe() is a global variable and needs atomic / locking / something better.
 - would be nice if the AIO fileops in kpc_dma could be made to work
     - probably want to add a CONFIG_ option to control compilation of the AIO functions
 - if the AIO fileops in kpc_dma start working, next would be making iov_count > 1 work too
