Subject: [PATCH next 18/18] [PATCH] mac80211: annotate sleeping driver ops
Date: Wed, 23 Dec 2009 13:15:47 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091223121618.459809480@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20091223121529.289129599@sipsolutions.net
From: Kalle Valo <kalle.valo@iki.fi>
To make it easier to notice cases of calling sleeping ops in atomic context,
annotate driver-ops.h with appropiate might_sleep() calls. At the same time,
also document in mac80211.h the op functions with missing contexts.
mac80211 doesn't seem to use get_tx_stats anywhere currently. Just to be on
the safe side, I documented it to be atomic, but hopefully the op can be
removed in the future.
Compile-tested only.
