Hi, looks to me something wrong happened in PCIe link level, and any register read ends up with 0xFFFFFFFF. can you please use devmem2 tool and read any register (e.g. 0x22000) of the device? also, can you test any other PCIe device? does this issue happens when using the Marvell BSP 4.2.2? saeed On Wed, Jul 22, 2009 at 10:04 AM, KueiHuan Chen<kueihuan.chen@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Dear Mark & Saeed, > > 2009/7/22 Mark Lord <mlord@xxxxxxxxx>: >> >> Are you using a discrete 7042 chip on a PCIe bus >> along with a 6281 chip ?? >> Or are you simply using the built-in SATA controller inside the 6281 ? >> > > We use a standalone 7042 chip on a PCIe bus with 6281 platform.
