Here's the function trace for the 1106-µs latency:

The function trace for 400-µs latencies is different:

( check_dektec_in-1145 |#0): new 275 us user-latency.

There are ~200 calls to ioread32 from mdio_read from speedo_timer.

http://lxr.linux.no/source/drivers/net/eepro100.c#L1159
http://lxr.linux.no/source/drivers/net/eepro100.c#L928

In this case, and as far as I understand, the culprit is the eepro100
driver talking to one of the NICs (which one?). Is that correct?

What is the consequence of IRQ10 being shared by eth2 and
by my I/O board?

How can I force Linux to assign different IRQs to every peripheral
if I have free IRQs lines?

Regards.
