more 2.5.x bugging ;)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi all,

now that I've started 2.5.x series anyway, I could just as well continue
bugging everyone. So I dl'ed 2.5.51. Selecting BTTV gives the following
compile error on 'make modules':

drivers/media/video/bttv-cards.c: In function `miro_pinnacle_gpio':
drivers/media/video/bttv-cards.c:1742: `AUDC_CONFIG_PINNACLE' undeclared
(first
use in this function)
drivers/media/video/bttv-cards.c:1742: (Each undeclared identifier is
reported only once
drivers/media/video/bttv-cards.c:1742: for each function it appears in.)

Someone probably updated the zr36067 i2c modules by copypasting or so,
I'll send a patch one of the next few days, but that's broken too (just
mental note to self ;-) ). I'm currently trying to move my stuff over to
the kernel tree. One of the things the current driver *still* lacks is
proper semaphore locking, how bad is that for drivers? Basically, the
thing could be considered as one big pile of race conditions currently,
should that be worked on before submitting to linux-kernel? The 'old'
driver in the kernel had an extra semaphore that was being held when
mmap() or ioctl() was called (this wasn't true for our mjpeg-version
driver b.t.w., only for the kernel-version), should I use that here too
for the time being?

And the tda9887.o source is still missing for saa7134.
