No. You'll need to run schedule_work() and then run call_usermodehelper()

There seems to be quite some difference between module and

Hi,
I have a question regarding blocked signals:
Is the current implementation to ignore attempts to set SIG_IGN on

The following code will go into an endless loop on kernels 2.6.10 and

A well-known kernel bug is that it guesses at the partition type
and the partitions on any disk it encounters. This is bad because
needless I/O is done, slowing down the boot, sometimes quite a lot,
especially when I/O errors occur. And it is bad because sometimes
we guess wrong.

I have had the same problem and the solution worked for me as well.
Where should I put the DSDT?

Ok. Is that a "it has done so for the last 5 years" thing?

Hi,
The attached patch dumps a list of partitions (in a similar
format to /proc/partitions) to the console just before the kernel

option to set the initial log
