Stephan,
The code seems already only reset once in the misc_control.c.
Other reset may be caused by other reasons.
Regards
YH.

主题: Number of resets in 1.1.5
Hi,
LinuxBIOS 1.1.5 currently does a couple of resets on the HDAMA before it
actually boots the payload. Is this elementary for getting HT to work
properly, or is it based on the current algorithm? To keep boot times as
short as possible, it'd be better to only do one reset and gather all
setup functions that need reset before that.

hi,all.
today I get an epia M800 mb, and use the original BIOS, install debian
woody.
after that, I build a linuxbios, with FILO 0.3 and VGA support, just replace
the original
BIOS. it works!, without any modification! ;-)
Best Reguards.
Ben.
I just got to looking at my test cases and I have successfully
compiled all of my test cases that are derivatives of actual
memory initialization code with -O2 and no extra registers.
Which is a very good sign for the case of using extra registers
to avoid inlining subroutines.

Hello,
I've tried google for the last 5 minutes. I can't remember how to
backup the original BIOS. I fried my working flash copy of it, and have
only the original, which I'd like to extract and put into another
working part as safety, but can't find how I did it in the first place.

Hi,
config.py moved to the target directory. Did this happen on purpose?
Should it not move to config/solo/solo instead of config/solo if it
moves at all?

Eric,
The same.
One Clue: Even I do the reverse scan, if I enable the hard_reset in the
misc_control.c. After the reset and successful scan the 8131/8111, it will
hang when scan the 8151.

YH

A) the reverse scan works and that is good.

Why? This is what I am trying to understand. It doesn't make sense
especially as I already did that, earlier. The resets to get the
hypertransport settings to take effect. I can see those depending on
the amd8111.
Have you tried the small subroutine change I sent?
Eric
