Hi
I am writing a device driver for a PCI device on linux 2.4.19 and i386 processor. I am initializing the memory mapped IO for this device in the same way as it is shown in linux/drivers/net/pci-skeleton.c. I am using readl and writel for accessing this PCI memory mapped IO.
The problem I am facing is -
When I try to write to a particular configuration register in this PCI MMIO region, the system hangs. I am able to write properly and read back the contents from other registers in this PCI MMIO region.
* Could anyone tell me why this might be happening?
* Could anyone tell me for what all reasons writel might hang?
When I request for an IRQ, I got an error which says:
"PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 00:e0.0. Using IRQ 11"
* Could this problem be related to the system hang problem in any way. Is this IRQ problem fatal? I seem to be getting some interrupts from my device, though they are not the same as expected.
Could anyone tell me what might be happening?
Thanks in advance.
regards Madhavi.
