[PATCH/RFC 7/9] libata: pdc_freeze() semantic change

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

 



Patch 7/9:

 After checking the current implementations of freeze()/thaw(), it seems only pdc_freeze()
do more than simple irq masking. Remove the DMA disable code from pdc_freeze().

The question is the design/semantic of freeze()/thaw().
Maybe we should limit them to simple irq on/off?
