Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 1326 Lines: 30 It may be too early to speculate, however, I have received no spurious kernel messages with the first generation Promise ATA/100 board (so far). I have another motherboard (MSI), with another Promise ATA/133 board (TX2), which also gives this spurious interrupts. root@l1:/var/log# grep -i spurious * syslog.1:Jun 19 10:08:48 l1 kernel: spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7. syslog.2:Jun 12 09:33:07 l1 kernel: spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7. syslog.2:Jun 12 20:03:55 l1 kernel: spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7. syslog.2:Jun 14 06:42:23 l1 kernel: spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7. syslog.2:Jun 14 16:12:37 l1 kernel: spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7. syslog.3:Jun 3 09:27:44 l1 kernel: spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7. Is there a particular problem with the ATA/133 TX2 boards, this error/problem seems to appear with box (that I've used) with this board (ATA/133 TX2). Also, I've used the ATA/100 in another box for about a 2 year period without a single spurious interrupt message. This leads me to believe there may be something wrong with the Promise ATA/133 TX2 driver for Linux? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
