struct semaphore::rwsem

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

 



Hi,
I am wondering, that the struct subsystem uses a struct rw_semaphore for 
locking. Consequently the use of kobject_un/register() is prohibited in 
interrupt context (because rwsem can block); is this not to restricted?
