ipt_register_table() does get_cpu() then calls translate_table(), and
somewhere under translate_table() we do something which sleeps, only I'm not
sure what it is - netfilter likes to hide things in unexpected places.

check_entry() will do sleepy things under that get_cpu(), but that doesn't
seem to be in this particular call chain.

Anyway, the new get_cpu() in ipt_register_table() is the problem.

You'l probably need to re-report the mouse problem if the previous report
didn't get any action.

Yes, netfilter broke.

Mouse issues in -mm

I'm not certain whether this is the same 'mouse problem', but I'll
report the mouse problems I've been seeing.  In the past several -mm
kernels, my touchpad has initially worked at boot, but 'tapping' has
stopped working at some point later (with no obvious kernel messages).

I've experienced this problem at least with 2.6.15-rc1-mm2 and
2.6.15-rc2-mm1, and reverting
input-attempt-to-re-synchronize-mouse-every-5-seconds.patch gives a
kernel without the touchpad problems.

Thanks,

Frank

What kind of touchpad do you have? Could you post your

Note: I believe this issue may also be related to the mouse protocol
extension.  I typically run with 'psmouse.proto=exps' on the kernel
command line, and the psmouse resync patch seems to break tapping in
that mode.  However, booting without proto=exps seems to continue to
work, even with the resync patch (though the touchpad is unusably
sensitive--hence the use of exps in the first place).

Thanks,

I'll investigate this.  the get_cpu() scheme was introduced as a fix for
a different (less serious) problem.  

You'll get a reply until later today.

I don't know why my touchpad is not listed. I have one and it perfectly

So the resync patch - is it only tapping that is broken or you also
loosing the touchpad completely?

Without the parameter your touchpad is using native ALPS protocol and
resync is disabled for it. You may have better liuck with toucpad
sensitivity using synaptics X driver.
