That msleep(1) was replaced with a longer msleep and fewer dcon_read attempts in OLPC's XO-1.75 kernel. The msleep(10) should probably be a shorter usleep (though we'd need to test it). In general, this stuff was done to work around bugs in the dcon, and the timing of these bugs appears to differ (probably due to smbus timing) between the various OLPC platforms - XO-1 (x86 amd geode), XO-1.5 (x86 via), and XO-1.75 (arm armada 610). Given that, I'd prefer to leave these alone and figure out the proper values later (with lots of testing). Mind resubmitting with the msleep changes removed? _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
