SYNOPSIS
- int wait_on_bit_action(unsigned long * word, int bit, wait_bit_action_f * action, unsigned mode);
ARGUMENTS
word
-
- the word being waited on, a kernel virtual address
bit
- the bit of the word being waited on
action
- the function used to sleep, which may take special actions
mode
- the task state to sleep in
DESCRIPTION
Use the standard hashed waitqueue table to wait for a bit to be cleared, and allow the waiting action to be specified. This is like wait_on_bit but allows fine control of how the waiting is done.
Returned value will be zero if the bit was cleared, or non-zero if the process received a signal and the mode permitted wakeup on that signal.
