Currently, binding the radeon driver to a Radeon FirePro (PCI 1002:68f2) that has been passed through to a guest on a Power8 machine causes a bad DMA read which causes the device to be frozen, leading to the driver failing to bind and other problems. The bad DMA is to the address written into the INTERRUPT_CNTL2 register during r600_irq_init(), and it can be fixed by substituting a valid (dummy) DMA address. --- Hello, I've been tracking down a bug, described above, and I've been able to hack in a workaround but I could use some help understanding how to fix it properly. What seems to be happening is that when the first CRTC is enabled (when evergreen_irq_set() writes to GRPH_INT_CONTROL) the device immediately performs a DMA read from the address that's been programmed into INTERRUPT_CNTL2 by r600_irq_init(). That address isn't a valid DMA address, so it triggers the problem. The address comes from rdev->ih.gpu_addr, which seems to be a 'linear GPU address', calculated from the size of the card's VRAM. It definitely hasn't come from a DMA mapping operation. Based on the nearby comment, "set dummy read address to ring address", I tried substituting a valid dummy DMA address (using the address mapped to the 'dummy page' used by the GART) and it does prevent the problem. However, I don't know what that register is supposed to do or what information the device might be communicating via that DMA, so presumably it breaks something. Note: I have tried loading the patched driver with "test=1" and all the self tests succeed. Could anyone offer some insight into this problem? What does that register do? What kind of address is it expecting? What might be a good way of fixing it?
