Unfortunately I was already short of time before running into this (and other) problems and it didn't get any better. So I would need some help from someone with more experience to fix this.

I donno what the speed would be like, but both David Brownell and Michael Buesch both have spi-over-gpio patches floating around (eg [1]). That, plus the spidev interface, might at least be worth a try..? But I'll let you get back to solving the UIO problem at hand :-D --Ben.

I don't know powerpc in general nor ppc405ep in detail but IIRC arm has
problems if some memory is mapped twice. Might this be the problem
here?

Well, if this is a 32bit memory mapped device and you do a non-32 bit
access strage things can happen.

This endif matches an "if UIO", so there is no need to depend on UIO
explicitly.

For debugging this is OK, in the final application you should add some
tests. Check the UIO documentation for the details.

IIRC you should initialise the other mem members.

Are you sure that overwriting info.mem[0].addr is a good idea? Then
unbinding the platform device and rebinding it fails to do the right
thing for sure.

Re: UIO not working on ppc405 onchip registers
Hey Markus, > > > > +config UIO_GPIO > > + tristate "Driver for PPC_4xx GPIO" As an aside, you sure you want to do this anyway? I'd suggest that you just do a gpio chip driver for this, tie it in to gpiolib and use the gpiolib user interface (which IIRC has only made it as far as -mm but is on the way up). This gives kernel internals nice access to the pins as well through the standard gpio framework. Thanks :-) --Ben. ___ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev

Maybee, the emac0 (0xef600800) and emac1 (0xef600900) get mapped as well,
because AFAIK I have to map a whole pagesize (0x1000).

The whole example was meant to be short.

This was stolen from uio_dummy. So this might become a common error :(
Thanks a lot for your comments, I will try to get an exclusive memory region
mapped.

UIO not working on ppc405 onchip registers
Hi,
I'm unable to get UIO working on the ppc405ep onchip registers (e.g. gpio/iic)
however it's working fine on peripherals.
It seems to me to be a problem with UIO on powerpc, because if I change the
address (and nothing more) to point to a external FPGA it's working fine.
I also tried the generic uio_pdrv which had the same problems.
Sometimes I get a "bus error" sometimes it only produces wrong results.
The "bus error" occurred when not a full 32 bit register was read (e.g. only a
byte of it), but I'm not sure if it doesn't occur for other reasons as well.
Here is a simple example against 2.6.26. It should toggle the GPIO pin 0 on
ppc405ep, but can be changed easily to work on other ppc variants.
Can anyone reproduce this problem, did anyone already succeed in writing a UIO
driver for the onchip registers? How can I fix this?
Might this be something like commit c9698d6b1a90929e427a165bd8283f803f57d9bd
which
added pgprot_noncached() to UIO mmap code to get it work on ppc?
Regards
Markus
