What does ``stray IRQ'' mean? Stray IRQs are indications of hardware IRQ glitches, mostly from hardware that removes its interrupt request in the middle of the interrupt request acknowledge cycle. One has three options for dealing with this: * Live with the warnings. All except the first 5 per irq are suppressed anyway. * Break the warnings by changing 5 to 0 in isa_strayintr() so that all the warnings are suppressed. * Break the warnings by installing parallel port hardware that uses irq 7 and the PPP driver for it (this happens on most systems), and install an ide drive or other hardware that uses irq 15 and a suitable driver for it. To stop the annoying bogus stray irq 7 messages you can hack the source where these messages originate from and change the counter value 5 to 0 so the messages will no longer be issued. isa_strayintr lives in /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/intr_machdep.c cd /usr/src/sys/i386/isa/ cp intr_machdep.c intr_machdep.c.org # make bkup of original ee intr_machdep.c Find isa_strayintr to locate start of stray irq 7 logic change this if (intrcnt[1 + intr] <= 5) To this if (intrcnt[1 + intr] <= 0) Recompile your kernel source and those stray irq 7 messages are gone. Document this some place for your self just in case you reinstall from cdrom. -----Original Message----- From: owner-freebsd-isp@freebsd.org [mailto:owner-freebsd-isp@freebsd.org]On Behalf Of mouhammad sajjad Sent: Tuesday, August 12, 2003 7:20 AM To: freebsd-isp@freebsd.org Subject: irq hi i have a problem of this "stray irq 7" how i can fixed it _________________________________________________________________ The new [1]MSN 8: smart spam protection and 2 months FREE* References 1. http://g.msn.com/8HMEEN/2737??PS= _______________________________________________ freebsd-isp@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-isp To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-isp-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
