* There's no reason to have a while() loop here, because: - if msleep returns 0, that means we were woken up by the interrupt handler, and we are going to exit immediately as sc_fw_chunk_done will now be 1 (there is nothing else that sleeps on sc_fw.) - if msleep doesn't return 0 (i.e. it returned ETIMEDOUT) then we will exit immediately because of the if-test. So, just use a single msleep() and then check sc_fw_chunk_done as before. * The comment said we were sleeping for 5 seconds, but the msleep was only for 1. Before the "sync firmware loading" FreeBSD commit, this was 1 second and so was the comment, and in that commit the comment was changed and the function call wasn't. The bugs here were introduced in the same FreeBSD commit as the "sizeof" bug that I merged a fix for earlier. Possibly fixes failures to initialize uCode on certain devices.
Haiku
Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs
Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.
Goals
- Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
- Clean, clear, concise code.
- Unified desktop environment.
Trying Haiku
Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.
