OK. Rereading my old mail, it looks like there were some possibly unresolved false positives with the userspace atomicity debugger. Here's one I get from alsaplayer. Would more information be required to know if this is a false positive? alsaplayer:5718 userspace BUG: scheduling in user-atomic context!
