Or if that is still needed for some legacy operation, then describe this. For example I also see it used in hci_serdev.c and main question would be if it is used there as well or some legacy cruft. this flag is still used in hci_ldisc.c (if that's what you mean instead of hci_serdev.c): as far as I understand the code it's used to postpone the hci_register_dev() call until the sync response is received Johan Hedberg added this code in 9f2aee848fe6 ("Bluetooth: Add delayed init sequence support for UART controllers") - it would be great if he could comment on this (he is CC'ed on this mail) Regards Martin -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-serial" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
