Re: ioctl failure with LANCEPCI



Take a look at the <http://www.vsr.si/ecos>. As for the current version of
eCos, the lancepci device works only in pooled environment, that means
RedBoot. In interrupt driven environment any control function can stop the
device aburptly, while in stage of transmittion, causing it to HANG!

I'll fix that during the Christmass hollydays, when I have time.

Hi Iztok, I think you are right. (After all, you wrote the driver.)
I use the driver both in RedBoot (to connecto to GDB and download the software), and in the eCos itself. It is when eCos tries to run ioctl that it completely hangs.
It is very nice that you will spend some time fixing this. I wish I had the knowledge to help you.

There is no simple workaround, is there?

Thanks,
Magnus
