[PATCH 07/15] staging: wfx: introduce a way to poll IRQ

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

 



From: Jérôme Pouiller <jerome.pouiller@xxxxxxxxxx>

It is possible to check if an IRQ is ending by polling the control
register. This function must used with care: if an IRQ fires while the
host reads control register, the IRQ can be lost. However, it could be
useful in some cases.
