From 7919b89c8276d657976d4d4d6b7cb58ea1aa08c3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Holger Schurig Date: Tue, 1 Apr 2008 14:50:43 +0200 Subject: libertas: convert libertas driver to use an event/cmdresp queue This patch (co-developed by Dan Williams and Holger Schurig) uses a kfifo object for events and a swapping buffer scheme for the command response to preserve the zero-copy semantics of the CF driver and keep memory usage low. The main thread should only ever touch the buffer indexed by priv->resp_idx, while the interface code is free to write to the second buffer, then swap priv->resp_idx under the driver spinlock. The firmware specs only permit one in-flight command, so there will only ever be one command response to process at a time.
