Stephen reported that his DL585 G2 need noapic after 2.6.22 (?) Dann bisected -------------------------------------------------------------------- commit 30a18d6c3f1e774de656ebd8ff219d53e2ba4029 Date: Tue Feb 19 03:21:20 2008 -0800 x86: multi pci root bus with different io resource range, on 64-bit -------------------------------------------------------------------- caused the problem. it turns out that 1. that AMD-based system has two HT chains. 2. BIOS doesn't allocate resource for BAR 6 of devices under 8132 etc 3. that multi-peer-root patche will try to split root resource to peer root resources according to pci conf of NB 4. pci assign unassigned code assign some range to pci-x bridge, but it is overlapping BAR that are used by ioapic addr of io4 and 8132. the reason: at that point ioapic address are not inserted yet. aka that patch is not the cause, and it just uncover other problems. solution is trying to insert ioapic_resource early a little bit. v2: update comments Reported-by: Stephen Frost <sfrost@xxxxxxxxxxx> Reported-and-Tested-by: dann frazier <dannf@xxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Yinghai Lu <yinghai@xxxxxxxxxx> Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxx --- arch/x86/include/asm/io_apic.h | 2 ++ arch/x86/kernel/apic/io_apic.c | 14 +++----------- arch/x86/pci/i386.c | 7 +++++++ 3 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) Index: linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/io_apic.h =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/arch/x86/include/asm/io_apic.h +++ linux-2.6/arch/x86/include/asm/io_apic.h @@ -161,6 +161,7 @@ extern int io_apic_set_pci_routing(struc struct io_apic_irq_attr *irq_attr); extern int (*ioapic_renumber_irq)(int ioapic, int irq); extern void ioapic_init_mappings(void); +extern void ioapic_insert_resources(void); extern struct IO_APIC_route_entry **alloc_ioapic_entries(void); extern void free_ioapic_entries(struct IO_APIC_route_entry **ioapic_entries); @@ -180,6 +181,7 @@ extern void ioapic_write_entry(int apic, #define io_apic_assign_pci_irqs 0 static const int timer_through_8259 = 0; static inline void ioapic_init_mappings(void) { } +static inline void ioapic_insert_resources(void) { } static inline void probe_nr_irqs_gsi(void) { } #endif Index: linux-2.6/arch/x86/kernel/apic/io_apic.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/arch/x86/kernel/apic/io_apic.c +++ linux-2.6/arch/x86/kernel/apic/io_apic.c @@ -4181,28 +4181,20 @@ fake_ioapic_page: } } -static int __init ioapic_insert_resources(void) +void __init ioapic_insert_resources(void) { int i; struct resource *r = ioapic_resources; if (!r) { - if (nr_ioapics > 0) { + if (nr_ioapics > 0) printk(KERN_ERR "IO APIC resources couldn't be allocated.\n"); - return -1; - } - return 0; + return; } for (i = 0; i < nr_ioapics; i++) { insert_resource(&iomem_resource, r); r++; } - - return 0; } - -/* Insert the IO APIC resources after PCI initialization has occured to handle - * IO APICS that are mapped in on a BAR in PCI space. */ -late_initcall(ioapic_insert_resources); Index: linux-2.6/arch/x86/pci/i386.c =================================================================== --- linux-2.6.orig/arch/x86/pci/i386.c +++ linux-2.6/arch/x86/pci/i386.c @@ -35,6 +35,7 @@ #include <asm/pat.h> #include <asm/e820.h> #include <asm/pci_x86.h> +#include <asm/io_apic.h> static int @@ -227,6 +228,12 @@ void __init pcibios_resource_survey(void pcibios_allocate_resources(1); e820_reserve_resources_late(); + /* + * Insert the IO APIC resources after PCI initialization has + * occured to handle IO APICS that are mapped in on a BAR in + * PCI space, but before trying to assign unassigned pci res. + */ + ioapic_insert_resources(); } /** -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
