Hello,

In ne2k-pci, an example in DDE Linux26, when a packet is transmitted by the driver, disable_irq_nosync_lockdep_irqsave() is called to disable irq. Then it triggers a send and calls enable_irq_lockdep_irqrestore().
Should the interrupt handler delays interrupts instead of ignoring them silently when the interrupt line is disabled?
See __enable_irq in the linux source code:
check_irq_resend(desc, irq);
which re-sends the irq if it has been set to pending while it was disabled.
