This one takes an uint8_t as argument. If my memory serves me correctly the Linux driver code through macros passes in larger values 0xabcdxx which are truncated by the argument type. We take an int and then have a KASSERT() which doesn't work so well for these larger values. /bz -- Bjoern A. Zeeb r15:7 --0-1355922163-1635196632=:68830--
