Subject: RE: [PATCH] driver core: multithreaded device matching with dependency
Hi, Stefan,
I have worked out a new patch with single-threaded unit supported in
multithreaded device probing. A new flag as follow is added to struct
device,
unsigned singlethreaded_probe:1;
Which indicate that the device node and all its children node must be
probed single-threaded. During searching next device to probe, if a
device has singlethreaded_probe flag set, the devices under it will not
be searched. Instead, the device and all devices under it will be probed
serially.
Can this mechanism solve the demand of IEEE1394 subsystem effectively?
The patch is only for concept verification. It can work on my thinkpad
T42. More optimization can be done if necessary. Because I have only
"Outlook" as mail client, the format of patch may have some problem. If
the patch has any problem and you need the patch, I can resend it in
attach file.
Best Regards,
Huang Ying
