Subject: hda: lost interrupt
Date: 1 Feb 1999 16:15:22 +0100

I have an Intel dual Pentium system (N440BX) with one Pentium-II 400
processor (the 2nd processor is on its way :-)  ). On the 1st IDE-bus
a 32x CDROM drive is attached as master. This is the only IDE device
on the system. I can use it on a precompiled 2.0.35 kernel from
the Slackware distribution without any problems. When using 2.1.129 or
2.2.1 I get an error: "hda: lost interrupt" and the system hangs.
Something like "cat /dev/hda > /dev/null" is enough to produce the problem.
The CDROM drive was detected correctly however.

I checked for IRQ/ioports conflicts, but I can't find anything wrong.
There's nothing on IRQ 14, except for the IDE controller. Also tried
turning on and off APIC and PnP in the BIOS setup etc... nothing helps.

Has anyone any other suggestion I could try?

Cheers,
Ronald

Hello Everybody

One big Q .. err small Q... is linux available for ARM7/TDMI
processor..

I m not sure about what this TDMI means...

Thanx in Advance..

Need a quick reply !!!

Subject: Writing driver, need advice
Date: 01 Feb 1999 06:15:09 PST

Hi,

I'm trying to write a driver for a high data flow device that interfaces
through PCI.  The device has a FIFO which when full needs to be emptied
and dumped to disk file for continuous recording.

I have been slugging at VxD code given as a reference example, but the
world of exe, dll, and vxd is hazy.  What I make out is the example code
actually handles the FIFO and disk transfers at the driver level.  The
Vireo development kit was used to write the VxD.  All the data
collection  runs in the interrupt loop  with flags set at the user level
to inform status and progress.  The disk file is opened and written to
through use of Vireo low level routines at the driver level.

The architecture of Linux is different and I need some advice as how to
structure the rewrite of this driver.  My guess is that the file i/o has
to be done at the user level, with the FIFO service at the driver
(kernel) level.  The FIFO routines will be invoked by the "FIFO full"
interrupt.  I then would put the data in a user buffer and the disk i/o
will be done by the data collection application (user level).

Is this the correct approach?  What about execution priorities for the
collection application to make sure all the data makes it to the disk
file without overflow?

Any hindsight or previous experience advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Agree. But you are also missing the point.

Adding few examples at the end of a man page, does not make the man 
page to be full-blown manual.

Thanks to everyone who tried to help out with this!  Marc Lefranc
has the idea that I'm running with...it was a lack of understanding on
my part.  At the time of the post, I hadn't thought of using read/write
only for transfer of images, and ioctl for controlling the hardware.  In
my case, this works great!  And, even better, lets me put out my driver
so that the users can write their own code for it while making it harder
for them to fry the hardware while doing so.

Thanks everyone!

  Its pretty nice. It uses more quite a bit more memory than vanilla
gdb. I had to go from 64 to 190 debugging my 19 MB executable, but the
ease of use over plain gdb makes it worth it. Put the cursor over a
variable and a floating yellow postit type dialog tells you its value.
That plus the data view (each object on the stack is viewed in a tree
menu that you can expand to see the whole thing) alone is worth it.
The "compile" environment doesn't seem any different from the usual
egcs installation - I don't know if why they bothered.

Subject: 2.0.36 strange behavior
Date: Mon, 01 Feb 1999 17:56:26 +0100

Hi,

I just experimented a strange behavior on my 2.0.36

linux machine. As I tried to start Netscape 4.5, it crashed third times

with first the "illegal floating point instruction" message

secondly and thirdly a "segmentation fault" message.

The system was not locked, I could log in from the net

but X was freezed.

The syslog file contains the following messages :

That's easy - you know that Linux switches dynamically 
between process space and file cache, but gives
precedence to program space, hence it's enough
to write a program that consumes a lot of memory,
say through a "malloc()":

#include <linux/kernel.h>
#include <linux/sys.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

#define MB 1048576

int
main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
    struct sysinfo info;
    long sz;
    char *bigbuf;

    sysinfo(&info);

    /* Grab all there is but not too much to swap */
    sz = info.freeram + info.bufferram;
    printf("BEFORE: Available: %3.3lf Mbytes; in buffers: %3.3lf Mbytes\n",
           (double)info.freeram/MB, (double)info.bufferram/MB);

    /* Alloc lots of memory */
    if (bigbuf = malloc(sz))
    {
        /* Touch it */
        memset(bigbuf, 'Z', sz);
    }
    else
    {
        fprintf(stderr, "Cannot malloc %ld\n", sz);
        exit(1);
    }
    free(bigbuf);
    printf("AFTER : Available: %3.3lf Mbytes; in buffers: %3.3lf Mbytes\n",
           (double)info.freeram/MB, (double)info.bufferram/MB);
    return 0;
}

This little program should get rid of most of the files in the
cache.

Take care,
