Lou,
Thanks for your reply.
E5000 is a sun4u. Machine was very popular in 1999 (when the driver was
developed) and in the developer's notes the EX500 series (which share the
same architecture, just a faster backplane) is explicitely mentioned. If the
driver was not written for Sun4u, Sun4m or Sun4d, what was it written for ?
Regards
Raoul

packet on socal0 port A
Hello!
Your problem is due to architecture-dependent configuration and source files
in the Linux distribution. This is exactly the behavior I - and others -
have now seen on sun4m architecture using the soc, pluto and fcal modules.
It walks and talks like an IRQ error. The good news (if we can spin it a
little!) is that the compile _does_ work on other architectures, so there's
hope...
The following is thanks to Matthias Schulz - on this list:
'in the directory /usr/src/linux/arch/sparc/kernel there are at
least different files for sun4m and sun4d architecture. One of the
files deals with interrupts.'
I think we can safely surmise that Jakub Jelinek - who authored the soc
modules and these architecture files - did most of his work on a
newer-architecture machine. We've tried to email him, but as yet no reply.
Matthias has gotten the soc module working, on a new Linux kernel compile,
on a (E1000?).
One of you guys much more brilliant than me would probably be able to figure
out, and correct this file, for sun4m, in an hour. For the time being,
though, I am completely dead in the water regarding use of my SS10 with a
fibre interface...
Any help??
