Subject: [PATCH] speakup: Clarify bleep_time unit is milliseconds
Date: Mon, 26 Jan 2026 15:17:07 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260126201707.1297665-1-zeri@umich.edu> (raw)
The documentation had a TODO questioning whether the unit was in
jiffies. The implementation in drivers/accessibility/speakup/main.c
passes spk_bleep_time to msecs_to_jiffies(), confirming the unit is
in milliseconds.
