Hi, I am writing a kernel module, and there is an I/O function (which might sleep in the queue to wait for IO event). I want to export this function (EXPORT_SYMBOL), so other modules or kernel code can use it. The problem is: I am afraid that if this function is called at the same time (one is running in module, and at the same time other module calls it), there can be conflict. Is that really possible? If the problem is possible, how can I solve it? Is mutex the answer to this problem? Many thanks. Hieu -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
