I have no good news for you, except that this is known problem and solutions have been discussed, but no one has time to solve the problem in a clever way. IMHO, the whole internal linux-dvb-structure could be changed to do delayed release (e.g. with kref). Today it is not possible to do this in generic way (for all DVB devices), because the memory of the dvb-structures is stored in the driver's state and thus is released there on unplug (for USB), but the drivers have no direct access on the nodes created by the architecture (which is good from one point of view), hence no knowledge about the real use_count. Sorry, Patrick. _______________________________________________ linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
