linux-toradex.git/drivers/fmc/fmc-chardev.c, branch v5.0 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules drivers/fmc: hide fmc operations behind helpers 2017-08-28T14:24:21+00:00 Federico Vaga federico.vaga@cern.ch 2017-07-18T06:32:53+00:00 9f757f415210a7c85e2784e4a1733ea78b2e4e88 This gave us more freedom to change/add/remove operations without recompiling all device driver. Typically, Carrier board implement the fmc operations, so they will not use these helpers.

FMC: fix locking in sample chardev driver 2013-07-25T05:56:52+00:00 Alessandro Rubini rubini@gnudd.com 2013-07-16T10:58:01+00:00 783c2fb1b8ba2f057a26f881aa452d4aa8e4b3f4 The fmc-chardev module was over-locking, by calling misc register/unregister while holding its spinlock. This reported a "scheduling while atomic" error. Since the misc driver already serializes operations internally, this commit downgrades the fmc-chardev lock to just cover its own list.
