The CS5536 companion device has three different power domains.
* working domain
* standby domain
* RTC domain
When the system is "off" only the standby domain is powered.
MFGPT[7:6] are member of the standby power domain.
MFGPT7 is used to control the backlight of the device and so the
timer gets used and configured during system boot. If the system
does a reboot the timer stays configured and the Linux driver
can not use it:
"ot200-backlight: ot200-backlight.0: MFGPT 7 not availale"
The cs5535-mfgpt has a function to hard-reset all MFGPTs but the
system hangs after the first access to a MFGPT register - cause
unknown.
/*
* This is a sledgehammer that resets all MFGPT timers. This is required by
* some broken BIOSes which leave the system in an unstable state
* (TinyBIOS 0.98, for example; fixed in 0.99). It's uncertain as to
* whether or not this secret MSR can be used to release individual timers.
* Jordan tells me that he and Mitch once played w/ it, but it's unclear
* what the results of that were (and they experienced some instability).
*/
static void reset_all_timers(void)
{
uint32_t val, dummy;
/* The following undocumented bit resets the MFGPT timers */
val = 0xFF; dummy = 0;
wrmsr(MSR_MFGPT_SETUP, val, dummy);
}
After playing around with this undocumented MSR it looks like I only
need to set bit 7 to free the MFGPT7.
BTW, all MFGPT[0:5] will be reset during pll_reset().

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload. With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required. coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS. 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 Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig') * flex and bison (for regenerating parsers) Building coreboot ----------------- Please consult http://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO 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.
