Not from a tasklet. ;) I had a custom primitive some time ago which I imaginatively named taskletex. When scheduling a tasklet one could then specifiy a delay in jiffies. If zero, a normal tasklet would be scheduled and if >0 a timer would be added. Nothing fancy or special really, but it was useful for the work I was doing at that time. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
