I have been using the Cypress 82C693 IDE driver on Footbridge for a CD ROM drive, and I know it doesn't work with the PATA driver - as I need to disable BM DMA, otherwise the 82C693/DC21285 combination deadlocks the PCI bus. The PATA driver doesn't support disabling BM DMA without disabling it for all PATA ports, which is really annoying for my IT821x card in the same machine. So, I'm rather stuck using the PATA driver for the HDDs and the IDE driver for the CD ROM. That said, a commit a while back "cleaning up" the PCI layer appears to have totally shafted the 82C693, as the kernel tries to request IO resources at the legacy IDE addresses against the PCI bus resource which only covers 0x1000-0xffff. Hence, the 82C693 IDE ports are non- functional at the moment. I'm debating about trying to find a fix to the PCI breakage that was introduced by "ARM: move PCI i/o resource setup into common code". I hadn't noticed it because I don't use the CD ROM drive very often, and I don't upgrade the kernel that often either on the machine - but it has been running 24x7 for almost two decades. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!
