Hi all,
I have spoken to a number of people about this ongoing issue with the
Xilinx System ACE hardware that I am using (I have a Memec board - not
the Xilinx one) and the fact that the hardware insists on generating
an extra interrupt on SectorWrite operations which is neither
documented nor otherwise explainable (but I'd love it if someone would
enlighten me).
So I've added a trivial patch to xilinx_sysace to provide a flag for
disabling interrupts at least for now. I am working on a bunch of
other Virtex II Pro bits and pieces that I'll feed upstream when
they're ready but for now xsa_interrupt should probably also check
whether the request queue is empty in the case that it's called with
no good reason.
The following patch has been briefly tested on a modified inhouse
2.4.23 kernel which uses a few drivers from the Monta tree (like
xilinux_sysace) but otherwise differs quite heavily - I don't rely on
any generated xparameters and other EDK nonesense and I don't want to
rely on that in any way either - least of all for determining whether
or not to use interrupts.
Jon.
