(Same basic problem I just reported in a seperate thread against 2.4.29-bk8) The following has been reported in the wild for kernel 2.6.8-24: PCI: Enabling device 0000:00:05.0 (0000 -> 0002) PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin @ of device 0000:00:05.0. Probably buggy MP table. It should read "No IRQ known for interrupt pin A", but the 'pin' variable has already been decremented (from 1 to 0), so the line: printk(KERN_WARNING "PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin %c of device %s.%s\n", 'A' + pin - 1, dev->slot_name, msg); causes "pin @" to be output, because 'A' + 0 - 1 == '@'. The supplied patch should fix it. It also removes a redundant check for a nonzero pin. Mark F. Haigh Mark.Haigh@spirentcom.com
