Subject:   spl protection of selrecord / selwakeup ?
Message-ID:  <FE045D4D9F7AED4CBFF1B3B813C8533701919217@mail.sandvine.com>

In FreeBSD 4.7, 

When writing a device driver, which spl 
should be used when calling selrecord or 
selwakeup() ?

Some of the functions called by those functions
(e.g., pfind ) have no protection of their own.

Some drivers use spltty() or splimp().

Can someone explain why splhigh() is not required?

Thanks,
