Marc? This has been sitting in my tree for a while now.

Hi,
v2 and v3 have almost identical CAR setup code with identical bugs for CAR sizes != {4k,8k,16k}. In v3, the erroneous code paths are not triggered and the bug is latent, but we have at a few boards in v2 which trigger these bugs, resulting in holes and/or smaller size of the CAR area.
Let's look at the v3 code:
#ifndef CONFIG_CARSIZE #define CacheSize 4096 #else #define CacheSize CONFIG_CARSIZE #endif
v2 uses DCACHE_RAM_SIZE instead of CONFIG_CARSIZE [...]
clear_fixed_var_mtrr_out:
#if CacheSize == 0x10000 /* enable caching for 64K using fixed mtrr */ movl $0x268, %ecx /* fix4k_c0000*/ movl $0x06060606, %eax /* WB IO type */ movl %eax, %edx wrmsr movl $0x269, %ecx wrmsr #endif
OK, 64k are working.
#if CacheSize == 0x8000 /* enable caching for 32K using fixed mtrr */ movl $0x269, %ecx /* fix4k_c8000*/ movl $0x06060606, %eax /* WB IO type */ movl %eax, %edx wrmsr #endif
OK, 32k are working.

Disable CAR between 16k and 32k unconditionally. Even if CacheSize is 32k or 64k. Not nice. This affects the following boards: ./src/mainboard/amd/db800/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/amd/norwich/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/amd/serengeti_cheetah/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/msi/ms7260/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE = 0x08000 ./src/mainboard/asus/a8n_e/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/tyan/s2912/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/artecgroup/dbe61/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/supermicro/h8dmr/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/pcengines/alix1c/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/nvidia/l1_2pvv/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/digitallogic/msm800sev/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/gigabyte/ga_2761gxdk/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000 ./src/mainboard/gigabyte/m57sli/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x08000
If CacheSize is not one of 4k,8k,16k,32k,64k, we will not set up CAR at all. This affects the following board: ./src/mainboard/iwill/dk8_htx/Options.lb:default DCACHE_RAM_SIZE=0x0c000
Clean up handling different CAR sizes and round down CAR size to the nearest power of two. Signed-off-by: Carl-Daniel Hailfinger c-d.hailfinger.devel.2006@gmx.net
