RC3 up and running fine booting to SI card with both cards in. Of course we can still not use compiz but I noticed Compton wouldn't work either (probably because of SI card) so I use Macro software for composting. Latest ArticFox also working great.
Thanks for your continued work.

Hi Ace,

Have you already reported the issue on the bug site yet?

Christoph Hellwig wrote: Interesting. This suggest it is related to the use of ZONE_DMA by
the FSL SOCs that your board uses. Let me investigate this a bit more.

As a hack to check that theory I've pushed a new commit to the
powerpc-dma.6-debug branch to use old powerpc GFP_DMA selection
with the new dma direct code:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc ... d85f403f06

And another one that drops the addressability checks that powerpc
never had:

http://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc ... a13ac3b669

Can you first test with both patches, and then just with the first
in case that worked?
Hi All,

I tested Christoph's latest DMA patches today. I successfully compiled kernels for the X5000 and X1000 from his Git 'powerpc-dma.6-debug' (both patches).

X5000: The kernel detects the SATA hard disk drive and boots without any problems.

X1000: The kernel boots and the P.A. Semi Ethernet works!

I will test just the first patch tomorrow.

Link to the test thread: use generic DMA mapping code in powerpc V4

Cheers,
Christian

Next step just with the first patch: 5c532d07c2f3c3972104de505d06b8d85f403f06 (use powerpc zone selection)

Code: Select all

git clone git://git.infradead.org/users/hch/misc.git -b powerpc-dma.6-debug a

Code: Select all

git checkout 5c532d07c2f3c3972104de505d06b8d85f403f06
Link to the Git: powerpc-dma.6-debug

Results:

X5000: The kernel detects the SATA hard disk drive and boots without any problems.

X1000: The kernel boots and the P.A. Semi Ethernet works!
