Does anybody else find hw_interrupt_type.typename lacking? "XT-PIC" doesn't tell us if it is level or edge triggered, high or low polarity. "IO-APIC-edge" and "IO-APIC-level" don't tell us if it is high or low polarity. Having this info easily available in /proc/interrupts would make recognizing and diagnosing interrupt configuration issues much easier. thanks, -Len - 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/
