This patch adds a new ATSC frontend driver, needed by the cx88-based
pcHDTV 3000 card. Also includes a tiny chunk to activate the or51132

CONFIG_IRQSTACKS seems only on ppc64. Is it good to add for other archs too?
Some architectures (x86) control per-IRQ stacks via CONFIG_4KSTACKS, so
enabling that directive turns on 4K stacks and gives interrupts their
own stack.

Just a minor nitpick, not really related to the mouse problem. More of
coding style problem.
IMHO the UCP and UCOM macros just obfuscate the code. If you do not want

Hi,
i'm trying to estimate the interrupt latency (time between hardware
interrrupt and the start of the ISR) of a linux kernel 2.4.29 and i
used a simple tecnique: inside the do_timer_interrupt i read the 8259
counter to obtain the elapsed time.
By this mean i found a latency of about 6/7

Hi,
is there any chance to signal an EOF when writing data to kernel via proc fs?
Actually if the length of data is N*PAGE_SIZE it seems not to be detectable. I
followed up the struct file but haven't found anything that helped...
Any help would be appreciated!
