Re: PCI IRQ -MPC8540

What kinda of interrupt do you want on IRQ_OUT/INTA?

Yes IRQ_OUT is wired to INTA.

Could you please advise on how to generate interrupt for this.

Thanks

Hello all:

I would like to understand if there is a way to program the PCI
interrupt pin register of MPC8540. I did look for this in the
datasheet, but couldn't find any positive answer.

Currently, I am working in a set-up where MPC8540 is an agent,
plugged into the PC host.
I couldn't get an IRQ for the card when plugged in some PCI slots,
whereas in one of the slots I do see a non-zero value.

It would be great if you could help me understand the issue.

I am sorry if the question is inapporpriate in the group. I am
desperate to solve the issue.

Thanks for any help.
You need to find out how the PCI edge interrupts are wired on you
board than we can talk about how to generate an interrupt based on
that.  I'd guess IRQ_OUT is wired to INTA, but it would be good to
verify that.

Hi Kumar,

Actually I do many trials about it. Vxwerks Bootrom is smaller =20
than

U-Boot. The key difference between Bootrom and U-boot is that some
source code of Bootrom is invisible to the users.

Actually the rfi instruction which I point out is the first rfi
instruction of Linux PowerPC bringup.

Before that, it's TLB entry invalidation and temp TLB entry =20
mapping.

I check MMU setting carefully before coming Linux Kernel.

I just want to know if other guys met similar scenario like me. I
don't
need the precise answer, just overall suggestion about it =20
because I

understand that not everyone has the same bootloader of mine, that
bootloader is actually a customized bootloader.
I understand that, thus I was asking what exact problem you were
seeing to try and help.

Anyway thank you.

R9 point to LR register, mask the high 20 bit of r9 and send to =20=
r7,

and
then add 24, which means stride 6 instructions for rfi instruction
execution.

Of course, rfi can switch the TLB entry, both the previous TLB
entry and
the temp TLB entry point to the same physical address.

I've checked it.
I know what the code does, I wrote it :)
