[MIPS] Fix for pci config_access on alchemy au1x000
I've encountered a serious problem with PCI config space access on Au1x000 platforms with recent 2.6.x-kernel. With 2.4.31 the same hardware works fine. So I was looking for the differences: Symptoms: - no PCI-device is seen on bootup though two or three cards are present - lspci output is empty - OR: lspci shows 20 times the same device (- OR: in some slot-configurations it worked anyhow) System(s): 1. platform with Au1500 and three PCI-devices (actually a mycable XXS1500 with backplane for three PCI-devices) 2. platform with Au1550 and two PCI-devices (custom board) Debugging: I digged down to the config_access() of the au1xxx-processors in arch/mips/pci/ops-au1000.c and switched on DEBUG. The code of config_access() seems to be almost the same as of the 2.4.x-kernel. But the "pci_cfg_vm->addr" returned by get_vm_area(0x2000, 0) once on booting is different. That's of course not forbidden. But the alignment seems to be wrong. In my case, I received: 2.4.31: pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0000000 2.6.18-rc5: pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0101000 To make it short: With 2.6.x it fails on the first config-access with: "PCI ERR detected: status 83a00356". Fixup: My fix is now, to use the VM_IOREMAP-flag in the get_vm_area call. This flag seems to be introduced in mm/vmalloc.c a long time ago (in 2.6.7-bk13, I found in gitweb). Now, the returned address is pci_cfg_vm->addr = c0104000 and everything works fine. Signed-off-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>
