during early coreboot_ram), pci_{read,write}_config{8,16,32} will die(). This patch changes pci_{read,write}_config{8,16,32} to use the existing PCI access method autodetection infrastructure instead of die()ing. Until r4340, any usage of pci_{read,write}_config{8,16,32} in coreboot_ram before the device tree was set up resulted in either a silent hang or a NULL pointer dereference. I changed the code in r4340 to die() properly with a loud error message. That still was not perfect, but at least it allowed people to see why their new ports died. Still, die() is not something developers like to see, and thus a patch to automatically pick a sensible default instead of dying was created. Of course, handling PCI access method selection automatically for fallback purposes has certain limitations before the device tree is set up. We only check if conf1 works and use conf2 as fallback. No further tests are done. This patch enables cleanups and readability improvements in early coreboot_ram code: Without this patch: dword = pci_cf8_conf1.read32(&pbus, sm_dev->bus->secondary, sm_dev->path.pci.devfn, 0x64); With this patch: dword = pci_read_config32(sm_dev, 0x64); Signed-off-by: Carl-Daniel Hailfinger <c-d.hailfinger.devel.2006@gmx.net> Acked-by: Peter Stuge <peter@stuge.se> git-svn-id: svn://svn.coreboot.org/coreboot/trunk@4646 2b7e53f0-3cfb-0310-b3e9-8179ed1497e1 |

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS you can find in most of today's computers. It performs just a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes one of many possible payloads, e.g. a Linux kernel or a bootloader. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. See http://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads. Supported Hardware ------------------ coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards. For details please consult: * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices Build Requirements ------------------ * gcc / g++ * make * python * perl Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) Building coreboot ----------------- Please consult http://www.coreboot.org/Documentation for details. Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware ------------------------------------------------- If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU. Please see http://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details. Website and Mailing List ------------------------ Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website: http://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: http://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
