All ISA bridges use subtractive decode (== listen to whether somebody else
claims it, and if not, take it yourself), and that's part of the spec.

However, there can obviously be only one subtractive decoder on a bus:
otherwise they'd end up fighting over the requests that don't have anybody
on the primary bus.

HOWEVER, you could potentially have multiple subtractive decoders if you
have multiple buses, and that's actually kind of what my pseudo-patch
tries to allow for. I'd like to see what the lspci outout is, but it is
possible that the docking bridge is behind another PCI bridge, which would
make subtractive decoding legal.

The other alternative is that the docking bridge also is the ISA bridge,
and knows where the ISA space is (not that hard - ISA IO space is
0x100-0x3ff, and ISA memory space is basically limited to 0xA-1M now
that there are no machines with less than 16MB of RAM any more), and then
acts as _one_ subtractive bridge, but forwards it to two different buses
depending on what the range was.

So there does seem to be "legal" ways of doing what the bridge may be
doing. I'd still like to see what the PCI details on that system are, and
if possible get some documentation on that particular bridge to see what
that says..

The trouble definitely seems to be the fact that your PCI-PCI bridge does
not seem to have been set up for bridging:

bus res 0 0 -
bus res 1 0 -
bus res 2 1200 e400-e5ff

and it appears that the reason 2.2.x works is simply that 2.2.x doesn't
care because it doesn't keep track of resources at all - it just takes
what the devices say their resources are. And the bridge obviously
_works_, it just doesn't tell which area it bridges.

Can you do a "lspci -vvxxx" on a 2.2.x setup, so that I can take a look at
what the bridge claims it is doing.

I quite frankly have no idea what to do otherwise. We could special-case a
bridge resource that is all zeroes, and say that it's a "transparent"
bridge and just say that the resource is the same as the parent resource.
That might get you going. It's probably not the right thing to do, but you
_can_ try something like this in pci_read_bridge_bases(), where it does

if (base && base <= limit) {
res->flags |= ...
..
-   }
+   } else {
+   /* Transparent bridge */
+   child->resource[0] = child->bus->resource[0];
+   }

..

(and do same thing for resource[1] and resource[2]..)

Does the above make it work for you? I don't know if PCI even has the
notion of transparent bridging, and quite frankly I doubt it does. The
above would be nothing but a hack that basically says "I don't understand
the resources of this bridge, so I'll just say it bridges everything".

Ok, thanks - this part didn't get anything new, the bus numbers are just
different due to the re-allocation, the actual bus windows are the same
broken ones.

I wonder why they are so broken. And why did 2.2 work?

Thanks.

It looks like the bridge that your docking devices are behind (I assume
that's just a regular docking bridge) has not been set up correctly, and
has a serious lack of bridging windows, which causes the inability for
Linux to map any of the devices behind that bus. So you get printouts like

bus res 0 0 -
bus res 1 0 -
bus res 2 1200 e400-e5ff
device Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA 2164W [Millennium II] resource 1 size 4000
PCI: Failed to allocate resource 1 for Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA 2164W 
[Millennium II]

The above means that of the three bus windows set up for the PCI-PCI
bridge for the docking, two are disabled, and the last one is a
prefetchable memory window which is unacceptable to most devices (the
Matrox want a non-prefetchable window for its command area).

The other cases all show the same.

Martin, what's up? It looks like PCI-PCI bridge windows are not enabled
and set up at all. At least on this particular machine.

And I don't find any code that would ever have done this, either. It must
be somewhere, if 2.2 works for you.

Ehh. How about yet another debugging patch, to see what the bridge bases
are? In drivers/pci/pci.c, function pci_read_bridge_bases(), find the
place where it reads the PCI_IO_BASE/LIMIT and the UPPER bits, and add

printk("IO base: %04x%04x limit: %04x%04x\n",
io_base_hi, io_base_lo,
io_limit_hi, io_limit_lo);

to before the sanity test for the resource[0] case (ie before the stuff
that says "if (base && base <= limit) {" etc).

And do the same for the mem_base stuff for the resource[1] and resource[2]
cases.

Martin, any ideas on why only the prefetchable memory case would show up?

Can you add the same extra debug code that I asked Dag Bakke to add for
his problem:

Please add a debug printk() to drivers/pci/setup-res.c to the very end of
pci_assign_bus_resource(), just before the "return -EBUSY", something like

printk("device %s resource %d size %08lx\n", dev->name, resno, size);

just to see what it wants and why it fails..

Also, it's probably worth printing out what the actual bus resources are,
to possibly explain the failure. So add another line that says

printk("bus res %d %x %08lx-%08lx\n", i, r->flags, r->start,
r->end);

just after the line that says

if (!r)
continue;

in the same function.

pci_assign_bus_resource(), just before the "return -EBUSY", something like

printk("device %s resource %d size %08lx\n", dev-name, resno, size);

just to see what it wants and why it fails..

Also, it's probably worth printing out what the actual bus resources are,
to possibly explain the failure. So add another line that says

printk("bus res %d %x %08lx-%08lx\n", i, r-flags, r-start,
r-end);

just after the line that says

if (!r)
continue;

in the same function.

Thanks.

It looks like the bridge that your docking devices are behind (I assume
that's just a regular docking bridge) has not been set up correctly, and
has a serious lack of bridging windows, which causes the inability for
Linux to map any of the devices behind that bus. So you get printouts like

bus res 0 0 -
bus res 1 0 -
bus res 2 1200 e400-e5ff
device Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA 2164W [Millennium II] resource 1 size 4000
PCI: Failed to allocate resource 1 for Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA 2164W 
[Millennium II]

The above means that of the three bus windows set up for the PCI-PCI
bridge for the docking, two are disabled, and the last one is a
prefetchable memory window which is unacceptable to most devices (the
Matrox want a non-prefetchable window for its command area).

The other cases all show the same.

Martin, what's up? It looks like PCI-PCI bridge windows are not enabled
and set up at all. At least on this particular machine.

And I don't find any code that would ever have done this, either. It must
be somewhere, if 2.2 works for you.

Ehh. How about yet another debugging patch, to see what the bridge bases
are? In drivers/pci/pci.c, function pci_read_bridge_bases(), find the
place where it reads the PCI_IO_BASE/LIMIT and the UPPER bits, and add

printk("IO base: %04x%04x limit: %04x%04x\n",
io_base_hi, io_base_lo,
io_limit_hi, io_limit_lo);

to before the sanity test for the resource[0] case (ie before the stuff
that says "if (base  base = limit) {" etc).

And do the same for the mem_base stuff for the resource[1] and resource[2]
cases.

Martin, any ideas on why only the prefetchable memory case would show up?

Indeed it does. Documentation/Changes says:

GCC
---

You will need at least gcc 2.7.2 to compile the kernel.  You currently
have several options for gcc-derived compilers:  gcc 2.7.2.3, various
versions of egcs, the new gcc 2.95 and upcoming gcc 3.0, and experimental
compilers like pgcc.  For absolute stability, it is still recommended
that gcc 2.7.2.3 be used to compile your kernel.  egcs 1.1.2 should also
work.  gcc 2.95 is known to have problems, and using pgcc for your kernel
is just asking for trouble.

$ kgcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-glibc21-linux/egcs-2.91.66/specs
gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release)

Looks true to me.

Again, you miss the entire point, which you brush upon here: Redhat 7.0
is supposed to be a 'stable' release, suddenly thousands of people have
been snagging the iso's for it, then there will be people who have
problems compiling new kernels for it and they'll have problems for it
once in awhile (i've seen quite a few cases reported on irc.. of
course, i refer them to this list).  Now, while this problem is being
worked on and will eventually be solved, it just doesn't seem like a
logical thing to me to call a buggy release 'stable'.  But then, it's
not my decision so I guess I'll just stop right there before someone
else decides to flame me. ;)

Considering he's already stated that he's reproduced this on a few
machines, I'd say that says it all right there.

What manuals ?

The genuine Linux kernel distribution contains its own documentation on
how to build and configure it.

The kgcc story looks to me like a lie from RedHat. In my opinion, they
just don't want to recognize that they have been loose.

Can you tell me (when it is KNOWN) what nasty things does that gcc do to
kernels? The thing that it does not compile vanilla 2.2.x kernels is not its
fault, and if you choose to either use K preprocessing in assembly (but
then no GNU extensions) or ANSI preprocessing plus you export memset/memcpy,
it will actually build and work, see H.J.'s patchlets:

mean that the default gcc is broken, but simply that using it for kernels
has not been tested yet too much and there can be e.g. bugs in the way
kernel uses inline assembly and the likes.

See above, it does not sum up anything. The only thing is that if somebody

reproduceable with kgcc as well (bug reports for kernels compiled with

 yeah, that pretty much sums it up right there.. you may want to try
 something else.
 
 Once again misinformation and FUD.
 
 On Red Hat 7.0, use "kgcc" for kernel compilation.  This is
 really an FAQ...  Instead of changing distributions, try reading
 manuals.

What manuals ?

The genuine Linux kernel distribution contains its own documentation on
how to build and configure it.

The kgcc story looks to me like a lie from RedHat. In my opinion, they
just don't want to recognize that they have been loose.

On Wed, 11 Oct 2000 07:32:30 -0400, Jakub Jelinek blurted forth:

  The fact that we recommend using kgcc (especially for 2.2 kernels) does not
  mean that the default gcc is broken, but simply that using it for kernels
  has not been tested yet too much and there can be e.g. bugs in the way
  kernel uses inline assembly and the likes.

Again, you miss the entire point, which you brush upon here: Redhat 7.0
is supposed to be a 'stable' release, suddenly thousands of people have
been snagging the iso's for it, then there will be people who have
problems compiling new kernels for it and they'll have problems for it
once in awhile (i've seen quite a few cases reported on irc.. of
course, i refer them to this list).  Now, while this problem is being
worked on and will eventually be solved, it just doesn't seem like a
logical thing to me to call a buggy release 'stable'.  But then, it's
not my decision so I guess I'll just stop right there before someone
else decides to flame me. ;)

  See above, it does not sum up anything. The only thing is that if somebody
  is reporting a bug on lkml, he'd just better first made sure it is
  reproduceable with kgcc as well (bug reports for kernels compiled with
  gcc 2.95 have been handled this way for a long time on lkml).

Considering he's already stated that he's reproduced this on a few
machines, I'd say that says it all right there.

On Wed, 11 Oct 2000 09:56:46 -0400, Horst von Brand blurted forth:

  - RH 7 ships a gcc patched from CVS sources in order to take advantage of
better (on ix86 mainly) optimizations on userland
  - RH 7 ships kgcc for compiling the kernel, as the 2.2 kernels are known to
be broken and not compilable with new gcc's
  - No, the kernel won't be fixed. The work is huge, and the risk is much too
high
  - Yes, 2.4 should compile with new gcc's. But then again, it isn't (and
probably won't be, at least for some time) a supported configuration

ah, thank you for setting the record straight. :)
