2.2 was o.k. with an SMP kernel, and an MP table in LinuxBIOS. The other cases it failed with. We were just happy when we could load 2.2 and we quickly switched to 2.3.x. The 2.4.x kernel code for assigning interrupts from irqs is not to bad, if you want to look at putting it into LinuxBIOS to support your 2.2.x kernel.... > We're going to have to get linuxbios to set this stuff up. > > I made a first stab but ran out of time, will have to try again > later. The interesting variant which is coming up is MSI. Interrupts over the pci bus, as specified in pci 2.3, pci-x 2.0 and pci-express. The interrupt story keeps getting more complicated, not less...
