Hi Gaurav, I had tried to use the workqueues but it fails; what happens is that queue_work() fails. (The return value from queue_work() is NOT 1 ). the reason is probably that I MUST call the queue_work() when I am in a function which is in software interrupt context. This is a requirement. So is there a way to get out of it ?
Why don't you use schedule_work() instead? Are you creating a new workqueue handler thread for your work? Do you really need it? Try submitting it to the default workqueue handler "events" Regards, Rajat -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
