Re: [PATCH v2 18/31] gp8psk: don't do DMA on stack

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

 



I applied this patch to the 4.8.4 kernel driver (that I'm currently
running) and it caused nothing but "frontend 0/0 timed out while
tuning". Is there another patch that should be used in conjunction
with this? If not, this patch breaks the gp8psk driver.

Thanks.
