I started looking through the code week or so ago. No much progress though but could you explain meaning of this to me: if (running == 0) { if (running) { blackout = RREG32(MC_SHARED_BLACKOUT_CNTL); WREG32(MC_SHARED_BLACKOUT_CNTL, blackout | 1); } ... It's in si.c, line 1564 in current master branch. Is it some concurrent trick or so?
