You're back! I posted a patch to the async del_timer() behaviour onto linux-kernel yesterday. I think we need to change the default behaviour of del_timer() to be async, and then run around and fix the resulting deadlocks. If we accept anything less, we have tens or even hundreds of subtle bugs. I'd be very interested in your opinions. -- -akpm- |
