Hello,
I'm writing a driver for a PCI card and having some trouble accessing
the memory mapped registers on the board.
I use:
pci_resource_start(..) and pci_resource_len(..) to get the starting
address and size of the memory mapped registers.
pci_resource_flags(...) returns IORESOURCE_MEMORY and IORESOURCE_SHADOWABLE
request_mem_region() and ioremap_nocache() both succeed.
when I call iowrite32(...) to write a 4 byte value, it succeeds on the
first attempt.
when I call iowrite16(...) to write a 2 byte value, it succeeds on the
2nd attempt (i.e I have to call iowrite16(..) twice before the write
happens)
when I call iowrite8(...) to write a 1 byte value, it succeeds on the
4th attempt.
I have no idea why 2 byte and 1 byte writes don't work on the first
attempt.
Sure could use some help here!
thanks in advance
Dhotiwalla
