FreeBSD 5.5-STABLE, HP DC7600CMT : bge0 and irq issues
I am having a problem that I have now come to believe is specific only
to HP DC7600 CMT PC, of which I have several pieces running FreeBSD
5.5-STABLE (all updated via CVSUP).
When these PCs boot, I see the following messages on the console:
Interrupt storm detected on "irq19: atapci1"; throttling interrupt
source
bge0: firmware handshake timed out
Now....
gw# grep irq /var/run/dmesg.boot

Interrupt storm detected on "irq19: atapci1"; throttling interrupt
source
.... irq 19 is assigned atapci1 from the above messages.
I have tried google, but perhaps with the wrong keywords, as happens
sometimes!
Q1. Why I am getting Interrupt storm?
Q2. Is there a particular problem with the bge0 drivers? (but why only
on this PC, because I haven't seen this on other PCs havnng bge cards)
Thank you 4 any insights..
