Can anyone explain the following code:
#if NIOAPIC > 0
printf("%s: using ioapic for interrupt\n", sc->sc_dev.dv_xname);
#else
if ((0 == pa->pa_intrline) || (255 == pa->pa_intrline)) {
printf("%s: NOT USED because of unconfigured interrupt\n",
sc->sc_dev.dv_xname);
return;
}
#endif
This breaks pccb on sparc, and as far as I can tell, pa->pa_intrline is
not actually used anywhere in the code. (The IRQ register in PCI
configuration space is "machine dependent", and on SPARC isn't used at all.)
I think the above code is pretty PC-specific. Can it be removed, or
#ifdef i386'd?
