An interrupt from the device is probably to signal a DMA completion, but these problem reports only mention the "IRQ nobody cared" issue; I don't see anything about memory corruption. If this resets the device, I guess that should prevent future DMA as well as future interrupts. Would pci_reset_function() do the same thing in a more generic way? I'm a little bit hesitant to put a quirk like this in Linux because it's only a 90% solution. If the only problem is the interrupts, it's probably OK since a few extra interrupts doesn't hurt anything. But if there is also DMA that might corrupt something, a 90% solution just makes it harder to debug for the remaining 10%. > +} > +DECLARE_PCI_FIXUP_FINAL(PCI_VENDOR_ID_BROADCOM, 0x4331, quirk_apple_b43_reset); > + > static void pci_do_fixups(struct pci_dev *dev, struct pci_fixup *f, > struct pci_fixup *end) > { > diff --git a/include/linux/bcma/bcma.h b/include/linux/bcma/bcma.h > index 0367c63..5c37b58 100644 > --- a/include/linux/bcma/bcma.h > +++ b/include/linux/bcma/bcma.h > @@ -158,6 +158,7 @@ struct bcma_host_ops { > #define BCMA_CORE_DEFAULT 0xFFF > > #define BCMA_MAX_NR_CORES 16 > +#define BCMA_CORE_SIZE 0x1000 > > /* Chip IDs of PCIe devices */ > #define BCMA_CHIP_ID_BCM4313 0x4313 > -- > 2.8.0.rc3 > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-pci" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
