The driver seems to use local64_t to define a single static instance of a counter and then seems to think that it is safe to increment the counter from multiple processors using local64_inc and friends. Common misunderstanding and a reason why I wanted the this_cpu operations.
The counters seem to be exported via module parameters.. So I guess we need to define these per cpu and then sum them up when they need to be displayed. Dimitri? Maybe lets move this outside of this patchset. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
