sky2: irqname based on pci address
This is based on Michal Schmidt fix for skge. Most network drivers request their IRQ when the interface is activated. sky2 does it in ->probe() instead, because it can work with two-port cards where the two net_devices use the same IRQ. This works fine most of the time, except in some situations when the interface gets renamed. Consider this example: 1. modprobe sky2 The card is detected as eth0 and requests IRQ 17. Directory /proc/irq/17/eth0 is created. 2. There is an udev rule which says this interface should be called eth1, so udev renames eth0 -> eth1. 3. modprobe 8139too The Realtek card is detected as eth0. It will be using IRQ 17 too. 4. ip link set eth0 up Now 8139too requests IRQ 17. The result is: WARNING: at fs/proc/generic.c:590 proc_register ... proc_dir_entry '17/eth0' already registered The fix is for sky2 to name the irq based on the pci device, as is done by some other devices DRM, infiniband, ... ie. sky2@pci:0000:00:00 Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Reviewed-by: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
