Subject: hotplug and interrupt context
Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2001 01:48:11 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20010312014811.B472@storm.local> (raw)
I couldn't trace that down to be 100% sure and it's better to conform to
design than implementation, so I'll ask:
Do the probe and remove functions of a pci_driver have to be able to
work in interrupt context? (i.e. GFP_ATOMIC and stuff)
I expect so, since CardBus handling doesn't start a thread and would
call these functions from the context it got the insertion message
(interrupt context).
