Nikolay Petukhov 9c2255c66c Now coreboot performs IRQ routing for some boards.
You can see this by executing commands like this:
grep -r pci_assign_irqs coreboot/src/*

This basically AMD/LX based boards: pcengines/alix1c,
digitallogic/msm800sev, artecgroup/dbe61, amd/norwich, amd/db800.

Also for AMD/GX1 based boards need a patch
[http://www.pengutronix.de/software/ptxdist/temporary-src/references/geode-5530.patch]
for the right IRQ setup.
AMD/GX1 based boards is: advantech/pcm-5820, asi/mb_5blmp, axus/tc320,
bcom/winnet100, eaglelion/5bcm, iei/nova4899r, iei/juki-511p.

I have two ideas.
1. Delete duplicate code from AMD/LX based boards.
2. Add IRQ routing for AMD/GX1 boards in coreboot.

The pirq.patch for IRQ routing logically consist from of two parts:

First part of pirq.patch independent from type chipsets and assign IRQ for
ever PCI device. It part based on AMD/LX write_pirq_routing_table() function.

Second part of pirq.patch depends of type chipset and set PIRQx lines
in interrupt router. This part supports only CS5530/5536 interrupt routers.

IRQ routing functionality is included through PIRQ_ROUTE in Config.lb.

Tested on iei/juki-511p(cs5530a), iei/pcisa-lx(cs5536) and also on
TeleVideo TC7020, see

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.


Payloads
--------

After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any
desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. Examples include:

 * A Linux kernel
 * FILO (a simple bootloader with filesystem support)
 * GRUB2 (a free bootloader; support is in development)
 * OpenBIOS (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation)
 * Open Firmware (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation)
 * SmartFirmware (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation)
 * GNUFI (a free, UEFI-compatible firmware)
 * Etherboot (for network booting and booting from raw IDE or FILO)
 * ADLO (for booting Windows 2000 or OpenBSD)
 * Plan 9 (a distributed operating system)
 * memtest86 (for testing your RAM)


Supported Hardware
------------------

Coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards.
