[Freemint-discuss] A NetUSBee question

[Roger B. <an...@xp...>]

I'm looking at the NetUSBee code with the objective of getting a mouse driver 
(and later a keyboard driver) to work under TOS.

In /sys/usb/src.km/ucd/netusbee/isp116x-hcd.c, I don't understand why 
TOS_INT_OFF/TOS_INT_ON are not used every time that MINT_INT_OFF/MINT_INT_ON 
are used.  Both set the interrupt level to 6 to prevent device drivers (hooked 
off etv_timer) from being called while critical sections are running.  Can 
someone explain why some sections of code are protected under MiNT but not 
under TOS?

Thanks,
Roger
