SubjectWhen should SA_INTERRUPT be used?
Hello;

In attempting to understand why a 3Com 900 Combo PCI card
and a BusLogic Flashpoint DL PCI card do not want to "play"
together under Linux I have found Don's technology flame
concerning the use of SA_INTERRUPT.

http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/misc/irq-conflict.html

Don particularly points directly at the BusLogic driver as
an example of inappropriate use of SA_INTERRUPT.

After reading Don's Web Page I have the question of when
should SA_INTERRUPT be used? Under what circumstances would
you really need to use it?
