Hi,
I'm attempting to port our Ethos HDLC driver from 2.6.14 to 2.6.27, on
a MPC8272-based platform.
So far, the kernel crashes when the driver tries to open (see below).
It seems that the interrupt handler fails to register, with the
following condition in setup_irq() in manage.c:
desc->chip == &no_irq_chip
I notice that the only place where desc->chip is assigned to anything
else besides &no_irq_chip is in __set_irq_handler() in
kernel/irq/chip.c
In that file, __set_irq_handler() assigns desc->chip to
&dummy_irq_chip, but this seems to be done for a special ARM-specific
case, according to the commenting:
/*
* Some ARM implementations install a handler for really dumb
* interrupt hardware without setting an irq_chip. This worked
* with the ARM no_irq_chip but the check in setup_irq would
* prevent us to setup the interrupt at all. Switch it to
* dummy_irq_chip for easy transition.
*/
Should I try to somehow call __set_irq_handler(), or should I be
looking elsewhere?
If I should be calling __set_irq_handler(), it seems the only relevant
function that calls this is cpm2_pic_host_map().
The only relevant functions which call cpm2_pic_host_map() are
irq_setup_virq() or irq_alloc_hosts() with the IRQ_HOST_MAP_LEGACY
parameter. IRQ_HOST_MAP_LEGACY seems to be irrelevant. Can someone
tell me what a virq is?
Cheers,
Daniel
