Re: [HELP] BAD interrupts

Hi, We experimented something similar with a 8641D board. This seems to come from the gianfar and: - when we are binding the three interruptions enet_tx, enet_rx and enet_err of each interfaces on the same processor, the BAD interruptions do not increase any more. - when we are compiling the

8641D, gianfar driver and BAD Interruptions

Hello, On a board based on 8641D, we have BAD interruptions (cat /proc/interrupts) which means spurious interruptions seen by the MPIC. The number of this BAD ITs are increasing during the life time of the system and depending on the ethernet activity. So this seems to come from the gianfar

Hi everybody, Is there anyone who implemented a clocksource driver (drivers/clocksource) to deal with the MPIC timers especially with 86xx and 85xx soc's ? Regards. -- Régis ODEYE Kontron Modular Computers SA 150, rue M. Berthelot / ZI Toulon Est / BP 244 / Fr 83078 TOULON Cedex 9 Phone:
