I apologize if you thought there was an accusation here, that certainly was
not my intention. With all due respect assuming that I'm
a jerk is neither safe nor polite. In your original patch for this I find
the following text:
Yes, I realize that, which is why I said the "bug is still alive" not "the
patch is not applied". I even went out of my way to describe how the
testing was different...
While I thought Larry's reply was a bit brief, I looked back on the
thread and I think I am on Larry's side. All you mentioned was that
you had a crash on unplug, and then you automatically assume that it
is because the most recent crash-related fix (which Larry kindly made)
did not work. You have no proof that your problem is even the same as
what the fix tried to solve. You did not try to go back to a non-LED
enabled compat-wireless, for example.
To be honest, I think you 'went out of your way' to try to pin your
problem on one of the developers, so that your problem is guaranteed
to receive attention. That's not very fair...
That said, I think this thread has gone on long enough - all that
happened is that (1) you had a crash on unplug, (2) you tried to pin
it on Larry, (3) many people has checked and verified that what Larry
did went in, (4) we still don't know whether your crash is related to
the LED change or not.
Since we still don't know whether your crash is related to any
LED-related change or not, this thread is not going well.
I accept your criticism. I should have been more clear. This happens
only when CONFIG_RTL8187_LEDS=y is set.
I'm not trying to "pin" the bug on Larry claiming it is his fault, I'm
merely stating that I am experiencing a problem that looks extremely
similar to what he described when he pushed the mentioned patch.
Again, I'm not trying to point my finger blaming someone, I'm trying to
help fix a problem. I am traveling for the next few days, when I get
home to my camera I hope you are all calm enough to help me troubleshoot
this bug so we can find a solution instead of accusing each other of
accusing each other.
My apologies for any perceived insults against anyone, seriously, that's
not my goal here.
