powerpc has a couple of bugs in the usage of dma_masks that tend to break when drivers explicitely try to set a 32 bits mask for example.
First the code that generates the pci devices from the OF device-tree doesn't initialize the mask properly, then our implementation of set_dma_mask() was trying to validate the -previous- mask value, not the one passed in as an argument. This patch should fix these. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --- Does this fix the problem you've noticed ? (I do still think that sbp2 isn't the right place for that call btw :-) Index: linux-work/include/asm-powerpc/dma-mapping.h =================================================================== --- linux-work.orig/include/asm-powerpc/dma-mapping.h 2007-08-07 07:59:05.000000000 +1000 +++ linux-work/include/asm-powerpc/dma-mapping.h 2007-08-07 07:59:09.000000000 +1000 @@ -96,7 +96,7 @@ return -EIO; if (dma_ops->set_dma_mask != NULL) return dma_ops->set_dma_mask(dev, dma_mask); - if (!dev->dma_mask || !dma_supported(dev, *dev->dma_mask)) + if (!dev->dma_mask || !dma_supported(dev, dma_mask)) return -EIO; *dev->dma_mask = dma_mask; return 0; Index: linux-work/arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_64.c =================================================================== --- linux-work.orig/arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_64.c 2007-08-07 08:00:20.000000000 +1000 +++ linux-work/arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_64.c 2007-08-07 08:00:47.000000000 +1000 @@ -372,6 +372,7 @@ dev->current_state = 4; /* unknown power state */ dev->error_state = pci_channel_io_normal; + dev->dma_mask = 0xffffffff; if (!strcmp(type, "pci") || !strcmp(type, "pciex")) { /* a PCI-PCI bridge */ _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
