Subject: Info about ACPI/PCI vs ISA
Date: Wed, 26 Sep 2012 10:19:23 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5062BA8B.7090503@peak-system.com> (raw)

Good morning,

I first sent the below e-mail on September, 24th... Perhaps it fell 
somewhere, perhaps the answer fell in some junk e-mail folders too, or 
perhaps you didn't find time to answer (sorry for the noise if this is 
the case).

So I decided to retry once...

I'm working on an issue with one of our PCI adapters.
This PCI adapter is a standard and well proven board, for many years:

$ lspci -v
...
04:08.0 Network controller: PEAK-System Technik GmbH PCAN-PCI CAN-Bus 
controller (rev 02)
     Subsystem: PEAK-System Technik GmbH 2 Channel CAN Bus SJC1000
     Flags: medium devsel, IRQ 11
     Memory at f0410000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
     Memory at f0400000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=64K]
     Kernel driver in use: pcan

The running system is:

[    0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuset

14 15)

We don't succeed to send and receive data to/from this card and we 
suspect an IRQ related issue. For example, loading our (good old) "pcan" 
driver leads to the below logs:

...
[    6.186877] pci 0000:00:1e.0: can't derive routing for PCI INT A
[    6.186878] pcan 0000:04:08.0: PCI INT A: no GSI - using ISA IRQ 11
...

My questions are:

- why does the system not succeed to "derive" routing for INTA? And why 
us? ;-)
- since the system looks like it switched in old "ISA" mode, should the 
driver run differently (IRQ not shared, for example) or is this 
transparently handled by the Kernel?

(implied question: how to fix this problem?)

Many thanks for your time and your help,

Stéphane Grosjean
