Subject: [9fans] Bogus shared IRQ on Dell D610
Date: Sun, 12 Feb 2006 18:56:17 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <C09C0449-CF15-4AE9-8C6D-33D870AC5DCF@orthanc.ca> (raw)

A bit more info on the 3C589 problems I'm having on my D610 laptop.   
During boot the kernel says:

...
ELCR: 0E80
#y0: 2 slot Intel 82365SL: port 0x3E0 IRQ 5
#y1: 2 slot Intel 82365SL: port 0x3E0 IRQ 5
8259enable: irq 5 shared but not level
intrenable: couldn't enable irq 5, tbdf 0xFFFFFFFF for i82365.1
#I0: xcvr10BaseT 3C589
I0: 3C589: 10 Mbps port 0x240 irq 10: 00104bdf06a8
...

The kernel is getting confused about #y1, which makes sense, because  
there is no #y1.  This laptop only has a single card slot.  The 589  
card is visible, and both /net/ether0/stats and ifstats are reporting  
traffic in both directions (provoked by trying the DHCP dance with ip/ 
ipconfig), it just seems as though the received data isn't being  
handed up to the user mode process.

I'm puzzled whether this is because of the irq 5 confusion. The card  
claims it's interrupting on irq 10, and the driver claims to be  
receiving (good) frames.  Should irq 5 even matter after the kernel  
finds the device and (apparently successfully) maps it's memory and  
sets up the interrupt routing?
