OMAP4 shares one interrupt line for all the mailbox instances. The ISR is handling only the mailbox instance that was registered last.
This shouldn't be needed, request_irq is being called with IRQF_SHARED flag and different device ids, so if a message arrives it fires an interrupt handler for each of the callers to request_irq and since the device id is actually a pointer to a mbox struct, the different users can be detected and signaled without looping through the "mboxes" list.
Also using "mboxes" list, will try to check for all registered mailboxes during probe, which might not be the same as the actual users (the ones that have called omap_mbox_get) and then unnecesary check their irq statuses if an interrupt arrives.
I think this patch can be dropped. Regards, Omar -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
