Hi all,
There is a problem with the ck804 code in the tree when it comes to SATA
support. I've observed this on a tyan s2891, and it has been confirmed by
folks with a sun ultra40.
This patch changes the southbridge/nvidia/ck804/ck804_early_setup.c file and
enables one extra SATA port. I've tested this on real hardware (tyan s2891).
There is a very similar file called
southbridge/nvidia/ck804/ck804_early_setup_car.c which seems to be used by
tyan/s2895
sunw/ultra40
I don't have access to a s2895, but YH thinks that all sata ports should work
on that board. It would be great if someone could verify that.
I'm not 100% sure why both the ck804_early_setup.c and the
ck804_early_setup_car.c file are included in the mainboards/sunw/ultra40/
tree; probably only one of those files is actually used.
I've spent quite a bit of time with 'dumpio' and tried to match register
values between the proprietary BIOS and LinuxBIOS, but to no avail. If
someone has ideas to get port 1 working on both sata controllers, that would
be great.
Thanks,
Ward.

we can delete non car version for now, because ck804 and mcp55 based
all go with car auto main.

Agreed, I think we should drop all romcc-related code from boards which
already do support CAR in v2. In v3 all boards _must_ use CAR anyway.
As for ck804_early_setup.c, the A8N-E still uses it at the moment.
With this patch in cache_as_ram_auto.c I tested the SATA ports again
and I see no changes (3+4 work, 1+2 don't).
-#include "southbridge/nvidia/ck804/ck804_early_setup.c"
+#include "southbridge/nvidia/ck804/ck804_early_setup_car.c"
So shall we move all boards to ck804_early_setup_car.c for now and
drop ck804_early_setup.c completely?
(btw, could ck804_early_setup.c affect other things than just SATA?
I only tested the SATA ports so far)
Thanks, Uwe.

Here's what I was able to test on the ASUS A8N-E. The ports are numbered 1-4
on the PCB, not sure how that maps to your numbers above. I used a 40 GB
SATA disk with 'IDE_DISK_POLL_DELAY = 1' in FILO as well as the 5
seconds spin-up delay patch from the wiki.
Without patches:
- Port 1, 2 don't work.
- Port 3: Works (hde in FILO), I can boot from the SATA disk.
- Port 4: Works (hdg in FILO), I can boot from the SATA disk.
No change in behaviour with your patch applied. Ports 1/2 broken, 3/4 work.
Uwe.

Test pre-patch:
1. stick 4 sata drives in s2891
2. boot
3. controller 0 (pci id 7) does not see *any* drives
4. controller 1 (pci id 8) sees both drives connected to it, but when the
kernel tries to access the second disk, it times out with nasty errors like
this.
See the boot log here:
