[PATCH] s2895 fix
by Myles Watson 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

Call real_main if there is a failover image and this is not it. Without this patch normal and fallback just hang... Nice. This is nearly trivial, but since I broke it and it's already been "fixed" once... Boot tested with a failover image. Most of the time I don't use failover, which is why I didn't find the problem sooner. Signed-off-by: Myles Watson <mylesgw(a)gmail.com> Thanks, Myles

Hosed ms-7032, I foolishly flashed the bios with a .700
by Phil Neary 11 Jun '09

11 Jun '09

Hi all, I'm not really sure how this works, I'm guessing its a bit similar to a forum, but in lieu of creating threads and posting posts, you email instead? Okay the reason for this communication, is I messed up when flashing my bios and flashed it with A7032VMS.700 instead of a .rom or a .bin. I think MSI's flash utility changes the .700 into something usable before it actually flashes the bios to the chip, but their instructions were heavily Windows based and I totally forgot that .EXE's are also for Dos and not just Windows. When it first happened, I tried the AMIBOOT.ROM recovery with the .700 and a few other bios' for my board that I downloaded from MSI, but they haven't worked. I thought it may be down to the fact that they're not .bin's or .rom's. So I recently fixed a friends PC and he has Sata drives so I was able to get the backup.bin from my hard drive and tried renaming it AMIBOOT.ROM and saving it to floppy, but Fedora named it amiboot.rom and I couldn't rename it. I'm not sure if this makes a difference, but it didn't work anyhow. Does Amiboot have to be capitalized? I'm guessing it looks as though the recovery feature isn't going to work? Is there anything I haven't tried yet? I can get a replacement chip for a fiver, but before I do I'd like to find out if that will defiantly work? Or could there be a small chance that a new chip even with the correct bios wouldn't work? I haven't done anything but try the recovery method, so nothing should be damaged. Thank you for reading. Kind regards Phil

Raminit help
by Myles Watson 09 Jun '09

09 Jun '09

I've yanked all of the sdram initialization from my s2895 so that I can use my HT device as RAM. I've set up the BARs in the device and in the Opteron so that I should have access to 0-2GB. It hangs here: testx = 5a5a5a5a Copying data from cache to RAM -- switching to use RAM as stack... Somehow the memory accesses aren't reaching my device. I added some debugging, and this line before the debugging: set_var_mtrr(0, 0x08000000, 0x10000000, MTRR_TYPE_WRBACK); Here's the output: xd1000_ram_init: ram_dev=4000000 id=554e1172 xd1000_BARs xd1000_ram_init: testing "RAM" val = ffffffff After loop p=10180020 *p=ffffffff val(@0x08180020)=8189920 *p(08180020) = 8189920 *p(08980020) = ffffffff *p(09180020) = ffffffff *p(09980020) = ffffffff *p(0a180020) = ffffffff *p(0a980020) = ffffffff *p(0b180020) = ffffffff *p(0b980020) = ffffffff *p(0c180020) = ffffffff *p(0c980020) = ffffffff *p(0d180020) = ffffffff *p(0d980020) = ffffffff *p(0e180020) = ffffffff *p(0e980020) = ffffffff *p(0f180020) = ffffffff *p(0f980020) = ffffffff v_esp=000cffe8 It looks like one value sticks but not the rest.

Any suggestions? Thanks, Myles

[RFC] Adding struct flashchip * to all chip functions
by Carl-Daniel Hailfinger 09 Jun '09

09 Jun '09

Short summary: We need to add struct flashchip * to all chip functions to avoid a big mess once we support multiprotocol capable external programmers. Flashrom has really nice generic routines like probe_jedec. They work perfectly as long as flashrom does not have to care about the bus protocol it should use to talk to the chip. Even current external flashers (nic3com, satasii) work fine because flashrom does not have to care about the bus protocol there either. However, any external flasher supporting multiple bus protocols (and such flashers are being worked on) really wants to know which protocol to use. Unfortunately, chip_read* and chip_write* don't know about the bus protocol. Adding struct flashchip * as parameter to chip_read* and chip_write* would solve the issue quite nicely and improve our abstraction at the same time. Of course, this means every function calling chip_read* and chip_write* has to pass struct flashchip * to them. Ergo, we need struct flashchip * as parameter in the whole call chain. An alternative would be using global variables for current flash chip properties, but that is madness during probe where we want to check for multiple chips. Opinions? Thoughts? Want explanations? Tell me! Regards, Carl-Daniel -- http://www.hailfinger.org/

build service results for r4354

Dear coreboot readers! This is the automatic build system of coreboot. The developer "stepan" checked in revision 4354 to the coreboot repository. This caused the following changes: Change Log: this port is horribly broken and should not have been checked in. This patch gets us through config, but it fails during build because the original patch duplicated some files for VIA systems. Signed-off-by: Stefan Reinauer <stepan(a)coresystems.de> Acked-by: Stefan Reinauer <stepan(a)coresystems.de> Build Log: Configuration of via:epia-m700 has been fixed If something broke during this checkin please be a pain in stepan's neck until the issue is fixed. If this issue is not fixed within 24h the revision should be backed out. Best regards, coreboot automatic build system
