Blocking I/O and rmmod

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

 



Given an application that is waiting on blocked I/O.

If that application crashes and the I/O is still blocked how can the 
driver be removed with rmmod?  Can the driver tell that it really isn't 
in use anymore?

If that application gets a request to shutdown while awaiting blocked 
I/O, what should it tell the driver?

TIA
