Linux kernel source tree
We install an kthread with pfifo priority that is iterating over all prepared requests and keeps the isoc queue busy. This way it will be scheduled with the same priority as the interrupt handler. As the kthread is triggered with video_enable it will immediately queue some zero length requests into the hw if there is no buffer data available. It also watches the level of needed zero length requests in the hardware not to fall under the UVCG_REQ_MAX_ZERO_COUNT threshold. This way we can drop the function uvc_video_ep_queue_initial_requests entirely. By using the kthread to do the actual request handling the interrupt handler will not be running into the time consuming and eventually locking work of actually enqueueing the requests back into its own pipeline. This work can now even be scheduled on another cpu.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
