I am working on some IRQ handler code, and reading interrupt.h There is an expression "wrt" which I don't seem to be able to decode into a meaningful word (from my vocabulary). 1. In the file interrupt.h there are some comments related to softirqs. Read this snippet and tell me what is inferred by the reference to "wrt" ... Comments from interrupt.h * If this tasklet is already running on another CPU * (or schedule is called * from tasklet itself), it is rescheduled for later. * Tasklet is strictly serialized wrt itself, but not <----here? * wrt another tasklets. If client needs some intertask * synchronization, he makes it with spinlocks. * */ 2. Googling around, I find the same expression "wrt" referenced as below. BlockDev - You do (todo) Open & Close - Mount & UnMount request_handler Loop thro the list of CURRENT requests Merge clustered request (if you feel so) Initiate DMA or so if any wrt device & Return <----- this line ???? interrupt_handler end_request Call request_handler thanks paulc
