Hello esp. David and Jeff,
Board: MSI E7505 Master-LS2, Broadcom 5701 Gigabit Ethernet built-in
Kernel used is 2.4.20 (Debian), but stock tg3 driver replaced with verison
1.5, dated 2003-03-21 (from people.redhat.com/jgarzik/tg/tg3-1.5)
Whenever the "tg3.o" module is loaded the machine freezes completely. With
some patience and a lot of debugging printks I found the following
failure path:
tg3_init_one
[called from tg3.c:6808] tg3_get_invariants
[called from tg3.c:6229] tg3_phy_probe
[called from tg3.c:5767] tg3_read_mem
tg3.c:200 pci_read_config
The call to pci_read_config hangs indefinitely; since irqs are disabled,
I am unable to get any oops message or backtrace.
I have zero understanding of the driver, but if you tell me what
information you need, I very much willing to invest time into debugging.
Thanks and best regards
Helge
