Sorry, I think I'm misunderstanding something. You say that the information provided in UNDI is directly read from PCI configuration space, in which case it *will* include a non-zero IRQ number. That means that if I apply the following logic: > > i.e. assume that the NIC supports interrupts if *either* the ServiceFlags > > indicate SUPPORTED_IRQ *or* the IRQ number is non-zero. then that would cause iPXE to assume that your UNDI driver *does* generate interrupts, and so it will fail. It sounds as though this idea (to assume that the NIC supports interrupts if either the ServiceFlags indicate SUPPORTED_IRQ or the IRQ number is non-zero) would *break* iPXE running over the Emulex UNDI stack. Am I missing something? Michael _______________________________________________ ipxe-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ipxe.org/mailman/listinfo/ipxe-devel
