Re: Sleeping after preempt_disable() possible?


> Can I sleep after a call to preempt_disable() ?

What are you trying to do? You can sleep from process context. If two
different process context can access to shared data, you can use semaphore...


I was curious that after a call to preempt_disable(), can I call a
function that MAY sleep?
