Re: problem with booting SMP linux kernel
by Gin 13 Jan '05

13 Jan '05

I've adjusted my MP table to use the correct IRQs. But the IDE interrupt is still lost. There is some message from linux kernel that I didn't understand. Is there something wrong with my timer settings? ================================================================ ..MP-BIOS bug: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC ...trying to set up timer (IRQ0) through the 8259A ... ..... (found pin 0) ... failed. ...trying to set up timer as Virtual Wire IRQ... works. =============================================================== This is the last line where the kernel stops. ================================================================= hda:<4>hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x24 ================================================================= Does anyone have an idea? gin

Are you using S2895 or S2892? And is the rage xl on board or as an addon card? Ollie

No, no problem. Same addon card (ati rage xl) (pci) on S2895 works well.

It seems that onboard ATI rage xl font mem can not be loaded correctly by option rom in emulator. After load the kernel (2.6.5) with atyfb enabled. The font mem can be recovered even restart the MB. I guess the ati rage xl could be judge sth to decide if it need to reload the font mem.

That resource is dummy so it should not be process by the resource allocator. Anyway, probably we should give up (ab)using the allocator. I made another version to use dev->rom_address in pci_rom_probe().

I have done some interesting test. I plug one display adapter to the MB, and let linuxbios excute onboard vga option rom at first, and then option rom in addon card. Then power down and I unplug the add on card At last boot the system, after linuxbios, it works well. The option rom in Adapter init the Font Mem and it can last some time even power off the MB....Funny..... YH

IO conflict in 440bx V1
by Richard Smith 13 Jan '05

13 Jan '05

I just remembered.. During my e-mail blackout I discovered that the 440bx code sets up the smbus base address at 0x1000. Which is also the IO address that the PCI code starts allocating from. Causes all manner of subtle problems. I changed my version to allocate smb at 0x500 but the right solution may be to reserve a range for chipset IO that the PCI allocator will not use. -- Richard A.

If it does not work, we can just write dev->rom_address to PCI_ROM_ADDRESS directly in pci_get_rom_resource() and the pci_rom_probe() can still be unchanged. Could you try the code?
