Don't you really want the interruption? Or use wait_event_interruptible() and return error appropriately.
any interruption from usermode should trigger the compress_stop/compress_free
... but how?
which will unblock this. I dont see the need to have interruptible here
Suppose you're running a single thread program. Then who triggers the stop?
Your signal catcher which should be registered for signals intrested and then calls stop or free. Assuming this should be considered single threaded. IIRC, this is how you do in aplay, right?
Btw am okay to make it interruptible, but since can be done in usermode and closed which unblocks this I would prefer this way. Pls do let me know :) -- ~Vinod
