| |
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?
