Ok; unless my brain is completely toast, the last patch I recently posted does thesame, but extends the support to the MSI and MSI-X with masking bit cases. Correct. Could you test in on your box with a vanilla 2.6.15 when time allows? If it works, then I will roll out a new Adeos/x86 patch

In a search for the problem, I encountered some code which may be at the root of the problem. In file arch/i386/kernel/io_apic.cI see that a function mask_and_ack_level_ioapic_vector() is being defined, whereas the original 2.6.15 code did not ever issue any IO_APIC calls (both

At second sight, the patches are ok. I´ve boiled the problem down to a lack of EOI. If I do __ack_APIC_irq() by hand after the desc-handler-end() has run, the system no longer freezes. I'm finding out why that is. Jeroen.

I´m also investigating why MSI also doesn´t work under RTDM. It´s merely a coincidence that the above bug (MSI interrupts from Linux devices getting blocked) emerged and produced exactly the same behaviour (system hanging). It turns out not to be coincidential. rtdm_irq_request() (through passing

In the meantime, I've located the rthal_irq_disable() and used it instead of the RTDM return value (which is now 0). The machine still hangs. More importantly, I noticed that the second (after the first) interrupt gets lost (as is to be expected when the interrupt remains disabled). This causes
