Re: [PATCH] mac80211: Update stop_queues kdoc

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

 



2007/6/1, Michael Buesch <mb@xxxxxxxxx>:
This updates stop_queue(s) kdoc as currently there's
a undocumented dependency.

Stopping the queue from anywhere else than the ops->tx()
callback will result in a hard to debug deadlock and
system freeze (on UP).

Sorry but: why would one call ieee80211_stop_queue() from outside of
the tx handler in the first place? Wouldn't that simply be a driver
design problem?
Unless i missed something, stop_queue() isn't called outside of the tx
handler in bcm43xx code...
