When i insmod my block driver for a compact flash that sits on a fpga
based pci card, i could see the following in the /proc/partitons
What does "fdisk -l /dev/foo" report?
When i do fdisk /dev/foo , the driver enters into continous loop in the
request_do_xxx function. And only option is to restart the system.
I am tring in Interrput mode (INTR_MODE)
xsysace_do_request(request_queue_t * q)

printk(KERN_CRIT "%s: unknown request %d.\n",

end_request(0); /* Bad request. End it and onwards. */

}
req_active = 1;
wake_up(&req_wait); /* Schedule task to take care of it */

#ifndef INTR_MODE //may16
while(REQUEST_DONE!=1)

}
In the poll mode . i am able to do fdisk, In interrupt mode the printk
staement gets printed continously.
