Around the use of which kernel resources should a lock be applied?
Depends on the resource, but most of it shouldn't need this anymore. If the kernel lock is moved into the driver, it usually means that everything else is safe, check now that the driver itself is smp safe, then you can remove the kernel lock. bye, Roman ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
