Hi,
I'm having bad luck with the AMD Quartet machines currently. Due to the 4 memory controllers I had to take out quite some debug messages from auto.c to get it compile, but I don't really get to that point anyways..
all I get is the following:
LinuxBIOS-1.1.0Fallback Do Aug 7 16:05:24 CEST 2003 starting... setting up resource map.... done. Enabling routing table for node 00000000 done. Enabling SMP settings setup_remote_node setup_remote_done Renaming current temp node to 00000001 done. Enabling routing table for node 00000001 done. [long delay here] Renaming current temp node to 00000002 [long delay here] done. Enabling routing table for node 00000002 [long delay here, then reset:]
LinuxBIOS-1.1.0Fallback Do Aug 7 16:05:24 CEST 2003 starting... setting up resource map.... done. Enabling routing table for node 00000000 done. Enabling SMP settings [complete hang]
this worked some time ago in CVS, but I don't know when it stopped.
Can the resource map cause these problems? I dumped the resource map I am using from a different quartet machine, and now I get the same problems than I had before with the default resource map.
It looks to me like it's a bad idea[tm] to set the resource map at all before knowing anything about the machine's resources.
debugging... Stefan

This time it's different trouble. Seems some changes in coherent_ht.c did not like the quartet too well...

Is this the right time to fill out the "probe" and "present" stuff that Greg mentioned for the static cpu map?
