[ipxe-devel] [PATCH] Always update the IRQ state in the IP layer

[Martin Habets]

The UNDI layer uses the IP layer's idea of the IRQ state to determine
if a poll was done for our UNDI device (see pxenv_undi_isr()).
As the comment in pxenv_undi_isr() explains the check is not 100%
correct.

The SFC driver does not support interrupts, so the UNDI call would
always set PXENV_UNDI_ISR_OUT_NOT_OURS.
Some NBP's (such as lpxelinux.0) hang due to this.

With this patch we update the IRQ state in the IP layer even if the
driver does not support interrupts, so that UNDI calls will return
PXENV_UNDI_ISR_OUT_OURS for the boot device.
For other devices it will still return PXENV_UNDI_ISR_OUT_NOT_OURS
like before.
