[PATCH v4 3/5] x86/PCI: Add $IRT PIRQ routing table support

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Handle the $IRT PCI IRQ Routing Table format used by AMI for its BCP 
(BIOS Configuration Program) external tool meant for tweaking BIOS 
structures without the need to rebuild it from sources[1].

The $IRT format has been invented by AMI before Microsoft has come up 
with its $PIR format and a $IRT table is therefore there in some systems 
that lack a $PIR table, such as the DataExpert EXP8449 mainboard based 
on the ALi FinALi 486 chipset (M1489/M1487), which predates DMI 2.0 and 
cannot therefore be easily identified at run time.

Unlike with the $PIR format there is no alignment guarantee as to the 
placement of the $IRT table, so scan the whole BIOS area bytewise.

Credit to Michal Necasek for helping me chase documentation for the 
format.

Changes from v3:

- Correct the BIOS memory scan such as to verify that the PCI IRQ Routing
  Table header as well as individual slot entries are all wholly contained 
  within the BIOS memory area.

- Following commit 5224f7909617 ("treewide: Replace zero-length arrays 
  with flexible-array members") also make `slots' in `irt_routing_table' a 
  flexible-array member.

New change in v3.
