I think this message about the bug is related to wrong ACPI IRQ ovveride 
entries.

Usually there are two IRQ overrides. IRQ0 override means that IRQ0 is not 
connected to pin 0 on APIC but to another, most likely pin 2. Check the figure 
above why. Second IRQ override is for ACPI IRQ. This overrides the 'level' of 
the interrupt to 'active low'. The rest of the table is filled with NMI entries 
for the processor.

[coreboot] Problem: 8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC.

2010-01-14 Thread Knut Kujat 
Hi,
I'm still having trouble getting the IRQs for my on board NICs working
probably. I think I set everything right in get_bus_conf.c, mptables.c
and irq_table.c but in my linux bootup I get this message: MP-BIOS bug:
8254 timer not connected to IO-APIC.  I based my changes on the tyan
s2891 that got a amd 8131 and a nvidia CK804 hanging on the same cpu but
on different links. My board got a AMD 8132 and a MCP55 hanging on two
different CPUs. Am I'm missing some setup for the IO-APIC? some kind of
routing maybe?

Some hints or a complete solution ;) would be appreciated.

THX,
Knut Kujat.
