A search through the source code for hal_set_lock might be instructive. I can say for sure it doesn't appear in any of my code. hal_set_lock is used 14 times and only in halcmd and halrmt. (ie is interfaces running concurrently in userspace) Considering that HAL functions are called in strict sequence I don't think it is necessary to set the locks in general. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
