SOFTWARE CONTROL LED ENABLE: When set, software has full control of LED activity. When clear, the LED’s are controlled by hardware. And then there are two more bits, LED0 and LED1 which seem to be the actual control knob for LEDs. From the description it looks like the bit should stay off so tha the controller hardware can drive LEDs. I presume this doesn't work as described? > HCTL_IRQOFF = (1 << 8), /* global IRQ off */ > HCTL_FTHD0 = (1 << 10), /* fifo threshold 0 */ > HCTL_FTHD1 = (1 << 11), /* fifo threshold 1*/ > @@ -540,7 +541,7 @@ > void __iomem *port_base = inic_port_base(ap); > > /* fire up the ADMA engine */ > - writew(HCTL_FTHD0, port_base + HOST_CTL); > + writew(HCTL_FTHD0 + HCTL_LEDEN, port_base + HOST_CTL); Nitpick: for flags, it's customary to use | instead of +.
