Regarding MPC8540 IRQ Issue

[Bhupender Saharan]

Hi Sudhir,

>From the PCI dump it looks like IRQ PIN register is 0. During enumeration
when BIOS sees that IRQ PIN register is 0, it would not allocate any
interrupt for this card and that's why you are seeing IRQ Line register also
as 0 value.

We need to do some work around for this.

 IN the driver you need to register for all the pci vectors( INTA,B,C and
D). You would be called for any interrupt happening on the bus. you have to
check if the interrupt is for you and then claim it otherwise return that
interrupt is not for you.

Bhupi
