LinuxQuestions.org - What's wrong with the interrupt?

I am debugging an Linux device driver which contains an external interrupt. The driver can receive this interrupt but shows a strange response.

CPU is S3C2410 (ARM9).

1.Add driver module to kernal:

Code:

insmod cc2420_driver.ko

2.Interrupt response:

Code:

scl_CC2420 interrupt, at pin 67

irq event 67: bogus return value 17

3.Relatd source code:
3.1 extern interrupt initialization

Code:

 gpiovalue = (~(EINT8_23)) & ioread32(S3C2410_INTMOD);^M

        iowrite32(gpiovalue, S3C2410_INTMOD);  // IRQ^M

        ^M

        // Enable EINT8_23 interrupt^M

        gpiovalue = ioread32(S3C2410_INTMSK);^M

#ifdef _DEBUG^M

        printk("S3C2410_INTMSK(before) = %X\n", gpiovalue);^M

#endif^M

        gpiovalue &= (~(EINT8_23));            ^M

        iowrite32(gpiovalue, S3C2410_INTMSK);  ^M

#ifdef _DEBUG^M

        printk("S3C2410_INTMSK(after) = %X\n",ioread32(S3C2410_INTMSK));^M

        // enable FIFOP interrupt^M

        gpiovalue = ioread32(S3C2410_EINTMASK);^M

        gpiovalue=0x40000000;^M

        iowrite32(gpiovalue,rEXINT2);^M

#ifdef _DEBUG^M

        printk("rEXINT2 = 0X%X\n",ioread32(rEXINT2));^M

3.2 register the interrupt

Code:

 reval = request_irq(IRQ_EINT23, basicRfRecvPacket, SA_INTERRUPT, SPI_NAME, NULL);^M

        if (reval)^M

#ifdef  _DEBUG ^M
