--- Comment #22 from Rafael J. Wysocki <r...@sisk.pl> 2010-01-30 21:51:48 --- No, it doesn't. It only releases the mutex used for protecting the global lock and its reference counter (acpi_ev_global_lock_acquired) from concurrent access. The global lock is released by ACPI_RELEASE_GLOBAL_LOCK(), but that can only be called if the reference counter is 0, which is what acpi_ev_release_global_lock() does. [BTW, if I'm not mistaken, there is a bug in acpi_ev_acquire_global_lock() that should do acpi_os_release_mutex(acpi_gbl_global_lock_mutex->mutex.os_mutex) if it failed to acquire the global lock.] -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Planet: dedicated and managed hosting, cloud storage, colocation Stay online with enterprise data centers and the best network in the business Choose flexible plans and management services without long-term contracts Personal 24x7 support from experience hosting pros just a phone call away. http://p.sf.net/sfu/theplanet-com _______________________________________________ acpi-bugzilla mailing list acpi-bugzilla@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/acpi-bugzilla
