Subject: Prevent softlockup triggering in nvidiafb
Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2007 11:36:30 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070423151053.GA5653@redhat.com> (raw)
If the chip locks up, we get into a long polling loop,
where the softlockup detector kicks in.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=151878
for an example.
