Unidentifiable PCI/VME Interrupt (SDS Bit3 618 card)

by "JJB" <mrbrandt@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jun 1, 2005 at 08:59 PM

Synopsis:
   On a RTAI/Redhat system I am ending up in my interrupt service
routine, but
   the Bit3 registers have no interrupting bits set. (No VME IRQ's, No
errors, No DMA)

Details:
   The system works 99.99% of the time, but ocassionally can not
identify why
   the ISR is being run. The IRQ level is not shared. I am using RTAI
real-time
   extensions to Linux, and have addressed the SMI interrupt issues.

   If I ignore the condition, I find that the real VME interrupt is
lost.
   (I can detect this clearly, because the hardware detects and
provides a second
   error interrupt.)
   Even with the hardware interrupting at a snails pace (10Hz) I still
see
   a random problem once every hundred thousand interrupts.

Any ideas of what to do when the Bit3 card indicates is has no
interrupts?
