Subject: [patch 04/12] block/xd: replace schedule_timeout() with msleep()
Date: Mon, 20 Jun 2005 23:51:34 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050620215133.675387000@nd47.coderock.org> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: msleep-drivers_block_xd2.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1323 bytes --]

From: Nishanth Aravamudan <nacc@us.ibm.com>



Use msleep() instead of schedule_timeout() to guarantee the task
delays as expected. The current code wishes to sleep for 1 jiffy, but I am not
sure if this is actually intended, as with the change to HZ=1000, the time
equivalent of 1 jiffy changed from 10ms to 1ms. I have assumed the former in
this case; however the patch can be easily changed to assume the latter.
