Amiga 1200 boot crashes in local_irq_enable() (or auto_irq_enable()) with an interrupt storm (the Warp1260 board interrupts appear to still be active at boot time): CS-Lab told me where to find the interrupt register (and its layout) so here's patch that turns off all incoming interrupts during config.c::amiga_parse_bootinfo().
It's not really necessary for a patch to include its history of creation in the long description. Rather, the long description should just explain in detail what the patch does and why it's necessary. Thus:
On an Amiga 1200 with equipped Warp1260 accelerator, an interrupt storm coming from the accelerator board causes the machine to crash in local_irq_enable() or auto_irq_enable(). Disabling interrupts for the Warp1260 in amiga_parse_bootinfo() fixes the problem.
I would also rephrase the subject as follows to avoid the comma: Turn off all incoming interrupts from the Warp1260 during boot Adrian -- .''`. John Paul Adrian Glaubitz : :' : Debian Developer `. `' Physicist `- GPG: 62FF 8A75 84E0 2956 9546 0006 7426 3B37 F5B5 F913
