Re: Accessing 64-bit BARs

2007-10-04 Thread yogeshwar sonawane
hello,
Thanks rolf & roland.

pci_iomap() is not doing something extra. only it is some kind of
abstraction for IO-mapped OR memory mapped.
I know that my BARs are MMIO, so using ioremap() & readl()/writel()
combination should be fine.

But for the problem as explained in my first mail, any
help/suggestions will be helpful.

That works fine, but ioremap() and readl()/writel() is also perfectly
fine for regions that you know are always MMIO.

You should use pci_iomap() to get an access pointer to the BAR. After this you 
can access the memory with ioread*() and iowrite*(). See "man pci_iomap(9)" 
if you build kernel manpages.

 Hello all,

 For accessing memory-mapped 64bit-BAR regions of a PCI card, the
 respective BAR regions has to be made accessible to the kernel using
 ioremap() function. Then readl()/writel() can be used on the address

You should use pci_iomap() to get an access pointer to the BAR. After this you 
can access the memory with ioread*() and iowrite*(). See man pci_iomap(9)

  You should use pci_iomap() to get an access pointer to the BAR. After this 
  you 
  can access the memory with ioread*() and iowrite*(). See man pci_iomap(9) 
  if you build kernel manpages.

That works fine, but ioremap() and readl()/writel() is also perfectly
fine for regions that you know are always MMIO.
