just as a heads-up, I've been working on getting this series ready for
submission to -net. The first six patches will need to be taken through
-net, the last two are m68k specific and might be equally well placed in
arch/m68k/amiga for preference.
Please don't put drivers in arch/m68k/. drivers/net is fine for a pure-net
driver.
OK, fine. arch/m68k/atai is where I had put the platform devices for
the Atari network and USB drivers, but these don't require much more
than a few register definitions.
Patch 6 and 8 are optional - the interrupts are handled just fine inside
ei_interrupt if generated by other users of IRQ_AMIGA_PORTS.
If you know of some other hardware currently using IRQ_AMIGA_PORTS that
cannot handle shared interupts, give me a shout and I'll look into handling
this through a new interrupt controller for IRQ_AMIGA_PORTS.
All Amiga devices should handle shared interrupts.
Good - do you see any merit in using a platform defined interrrupt
wrapper to 'protect' a driver interrupt from spurious calls?
Thanks a lot for your work!
My pleasure, as always.
Cheers,
Michael
