Subject: [PATCH] kernel/timer: fix msleep_interruptible() comment
Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2005 10:56:15 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050303185615.GN11600@us.ibm.com> (raw)
Hi,
Please consider applying.
Description: The comment for msleep_interruptible() is wrong, as it will
ignore wait-queue events, but will wake up early for signals.
