Subject: kernel 2.6.0 and lirc_serial (Patch #4 20031231) IRQ problems
Date: Tue, 06 Jan 2004 14:26:21 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <m3ptdxqkci.fsf@reason.gnu-hamburg> (raw)

Hi all,

I'm running 

 Linux kernel 2.6.0 

 Lirc Drivers for 2.6.0 Patch #4 20031231
 (http://flameeyes.web.ctonet.it/lirc/patch-lirc-20031231.diff.bz2)
 [necessary because the machine is running a SMP kernel for which
  its own lirc_serial causes a hard freeze/crash without the patch]

The receiver is a homebrew IR serial receiver (lirc_serial module).

It basically works fine until sometimes (no pattern reproduceable)
dmesg outputs:

 irq 4: nobody cared!
 Call Trace:
  [<c010c565>] __report_bad_irq+0x2b/0x8c

 handlers:
 [<f89082d8>] (irq_handler+0x0/0x56d [lirc_serial])
 Disabling IRQ #4

and then the LIRC stops working until after reboot. Un-/Reloading the
lirc_serial module doesn't work/isn't possible.

I've now loaded the lirc_serial module with debug=1 option, if it
crashes again, I'll see whether it produces any useful output and let
you know.

Hope this helps,

Regards,
Georg
