I've looked at the alsa-devel thread [1] and your problem description there. At OLPC during development we found similar symptoms showing up in ALSA playback that were contributed to other drivers, but the underlying causes were in the ALSA driver for our codec chip, and the other drivers were changing the appearance of the fault only because of timing changes. But there's no need to conclude that interrupts were disabled or delayed. There can be many other causes. The timing miscalculation by ALSA might be important. I can't figure out how a wireless driver can easily cause that. 1. http://mailman.alsa-project.org/pipermail/alsa-devel/2014-January/071142.html -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
