Subject: Re: [PATCH] bcm43xx: Fix failure to deliver PCI-E interrupts

Michael Buesch wrote:

I have one general question before I address your comments. Does a BCM43xx chip always have either a
PCI or a PCI-E core? I've seen discussion on this list that makes me wonder. That is why I had some
explicit tests for PCI-E in the code.

Is this in the specs?

True, as long as a particular chip has one or the other core.

I'm not sure either. I just found it in the wireless-dev code and in the specs, but not here.

I thought so too and skipped over this section many times while trying to find the bug, but this is
the change that makes the interface work.

If the original structure was

if A or B
    clause 1
else
    clause 2

My patch changed it into

if not A or not B
    clause 2
else
    clause 1

Obviously, clause 2 will be executed if A or B is false. Accordingly, the test can be restructured into

if A && B
    clause 1
else
    clause 2

Now we can see the bug in the original. I always knew that the course in symbolic logic that I took
many decades ago was useful.

True. I can pull the pci_core out and substitute bcm->current_core for it.

I will submit a revised patch as soon as I sort out the core_rev situation.
