Return-Path: From: Ulisses Furquim To: linux-bluetooth@vger.kernel.org Cc: padovan@profusion.mobi, Ulisses Furquim Subject: [PATCH] Bluetooth: Remove global mutex hci_task_lock Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2011 17:10:51 -0200 Message-Id: <1324408251-8116-1-git-send-email-ulisses@profusion.mobi> Sender: linux-bluetooth-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: The hci_task_lock mutex (previously a lock) was supposed to protect the register/unregister of HCI protocols against RX/TX tasks. This will not be needed anymore because SCO and L2CAP will always be compiled. Moreover, with the recent move of RX/TX to workqueues per device the global hci_task_lock was causing starvation between different HCI devices.
