SV: [hsflinux] New driver worked in FC5test1

[Christian Magnusson]

Is there any possibility for you to tune your core-modules to make them work
for kernels with 4K stacks in the future?

I mean there are many other device drivers which obviously work with that
stack size... I guess your modules are a bit more complex compared to many
other modules, but are there any code/module-design which makes it
impossible to decrease the stack usage?

In my case the modules could be loaded (and unloaded) with 4K stack, but as
soon as I plug-in the modem (USB 0572:1300) everything freezes.

Hi,

the new version of the HSF modem driver still requires a kernel with a 
larger stack size than 4K in many cases. When the final version of 
Fedora Core 5 will be released, we will start to provide 16K stacks 
pre-compiled kernels packages in the same way we offer them for Fedora 
Core 2, 3 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.x.
