Hello,
When booting the AMD Tilapia coreboot BIOS on simnow I encounter an endless loop in pci_scan_bus(). The reason is that pci_scan_bus expects a valid argument for max_devfn, yet receives 0xFFFFFFFF.
The origin of the invalid max_devfn argument is line 596 of hypertransport.c:
max = pci_scan_bus(bus, 0x00, ((next_unitid-1) << 3)|7, max);
With my setup, next_unitid is zero, which causes a bad argument to be passed to pci_scan_bus. As a work-around, I change the code to recognize and handle this case by passing 0xFF (all devices).
Does anyone else encounter this situation on AMD boards? I ask because I am using simnow in place of real hardware.
Thanks, Scott
