Re: [PATCH 2/2] omap i2c: add a timeout to the busy waiting

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

 



Alexander Shishkin said the following on 12/16/2009 07:32 PM:
The errata 1.153 workaround is busy waiting on XUDF bit in interrupt
context, which may lead to kernel hangs. The problem can be reproduced
by running the bus with wrong (too high) speed.

a) timeout without using an actual delay is not a good idea - consider each OPP - we can go upto 1ghz on 3630,
the actual time for 10000 iterations will depend on the MPU speed.
b) how did you arrive at the 10k iteration limit?
