Dear All,
I am working on a Block driver. I am required to do a pretty heavy
computation in the interrupt context.
I tried to schedule the kernel work queue in the driver from the
bottomhalf.
It works.
As Tasklet is the next high priority job after interrupts, I suspect if
anything is wrong in incorporating this method.
Please see the pseudo code below.
Pseudo code
------------
/* ISR */
intsrv()
{
......
tasklet_schedule(&tlet);
}
/* bottom half */
static void bottomhalf(ulong vptr)
{
......
......
schedule_work(&tqueue); /* call to Work queue */
}
This is how it works and finally the assigned work queue function will
be called. Please give your ideas on this kind of an approach.
Regards,
Mukund Jampala
