Well, its rather that the delayed probe rutine I register with config_intrhook_establish() is called before interrupts are actually working, that would explain why it times out on the probe... This didn't happen before, so thats probably why it breaks... It should break SCSI systems too, ass they do the same... > Also, I note that you've only partially newbussed the code; I don't see > any busspace/busdma stuff in there. Is there another megapatch coming? Busspace is a joke, I'm perfectly fine with calling those macros in[bwl]/out[bwl] like they should be :) Busdma, hmm, well I dont see that helping here either.... And no, no more mega patches before 4.0, this should probably have waited too, but there has been pushed very stronly for this... -Søren To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
