Date: Sun, 20 Aug 1995 14:20:34 -0700 From: "Justin T. Gibbs" Sender: hackers-owner@FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk What are the issues involved in allowing clock interrupts during probes? The PCI code already does this so I would think it possible to do it for the others. It would certainly make the job of having the SCSI code perform the proper delays between retries easier. It would also be the first step in getting rid of the ugly DELAY()'s in driver code. __ Justin T.
