[Fwd: Re: via rhine network failure on 2.6.0-test4]

Do dmidecode and acpidump have to be run while booted to the failing kernel (2.6.0-test4)? If so I will need to rebuild test4 with ACPI on again tonight to get it to fail. Otherwise here is the output from dmidecode run on the same system while booted to 2.4. I will open a bug on bugzilla later today if I can track down my bugzilla id.

Following info would be crucial when figuring out the problem. In this particular case, it looks like test4 attempted to enable wrong
PCI interrupt links (i.e. LNKA and LNKD, the ones already enabled).

Looks like IRQ misassignment. Disabling ACPI on test4 got networking


to


work again and the IRQ assignment is back to IRQ11 for via rhine. The
assigned interrupt in the failing case (linux-2.6.0-test4) was IRQ5
instead of 11 which presumably it should be - see contents of
/proc/interrupts in the failing case (test4):

The via rhine driver fails to get a dhcp address on my test system

ifconfig does show the device and it is detected in /proc/pci.
Switching from the test3 vs. test4 snapshots built with equivalent
configure options on the same system (SuSE 8.2) - test3 works but
test4 does not. This is using essentially the default config for


both


the test3 and test4 cases - the only changes are SMP disabled, scsi
devices disabled, Athlon, via-rhine enabled in network devices and


a


handful of additional filesystems enabled, debug memory allocations
enabled. This is the first time in many months that I have seen
problems with the via-rhine driver on 2.6

Analyzing the code differences between 2.6.0-test3 and test4 (in
via-rhine.c) is not very promising since the only line that has
changed (kfree to free_netdev) is in the routine


via_rhine_remove_one


that seems unlikely to cause problems sending data on the network.

Ideas as to what could have caused the regression?



Does /proc/interrupts show any interrupts being received on your eth
device? Does dmesg report any irq assignment problems, or similar?

This sounds like ACPI or irq routing related.
