[ECOS] Question about DSRs

[Rajeev <rajeev at inablers dot net>]

 Hi,
        we are porting the serial driver of the PID board onto our
customized board.  Transmit and Recieve are both in interrupt mode.
When serial_xmt_char or serial_rcv_char are used in the ISR the driver
seems to work well but when xmt_char is put in the DSR ,  the behaviour
is not consistent, mean to say, when i have repeated write calls in a
loop in my app ,the DSR doesnt get the control at all , but if i have
just two write calls not in a loop then the  DSR gets control but it
waits till cyg_user_start exits.
     Can anybody help me out on the exact behaviour of DSRs, like where
to use and where not to. At what point does it get the control?
thanks
