I'm no expert, but it looks like ixgb is locked and has INTR_MPSAFE > enabled (alc did some work on this, see rev 1.7 of ixgb.c). Should I > mark busdma, INTR_MPSAFE and SMPng locked as done? Probably not, only busdma should be OK and as I said, it's not even sure because there have been no tests yet. I think the appropriate thing to do is to mark the busdma this driver as "Needs testing" for busdma, and not done for all the rest. Cheers, Maxime
