[PATCH 0/8] Removal of BKL part 1

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

 



This patch series remove direct calls for BKL on some V4L drivers. It also uses
.unlocked_ioctl for some of those drivers.

This is a work in progress, as I'm doing the conversion manually. We still need to 
touch on the drivers bellow, just due to explicit call to BKL:

	drivers/media/video/tlg2300/pd-main.c
	drivers/media/video/se401.c
	drivers/media/video/zoran/zoran_driver.c
	drivers/media/video/cx23885/cx23885-417.c
	drivers/media/video/cx23885/cx23885-video.c
	drivers/media/video/usbvideo/vicam.c
	drivers/media/video/usbvision/usbvision-video.c
	drivers/media/video/dabusb.c
	drivers/media/video/pwc/pwc-if.c
	drivers/media/video/v4l2-dev.c
	drivers/media/video/stk-webcam.c

Probably, there are more drivers still using .ioctl, instead of .unsigned_ioctl.

The patches here were not tested yet. Help is needed to test them and to review
the patch series.
