Hi,
I have an Alix 1.C for which I'm trying to write an I2C device driver. The system is AMD Geode LX based and as such has an AMD CS5536 South Bridge that contains the I2C/SMBus hardware. Judging by the datasheet available at
http://support.amd.com/us/Embedded_T..._cs5536_db.pdf, the registers of the I2C controller are mapped into I/O space via a BAR.
The BAR can be read via a fixed-address MSR and I determined that the eight registers are mapped at I/O addresses 0x6000-0x6007. I have successfully used the
io(4) device to access the registers from userland.
Apparently, the south bridge also announces itself as a PCI-ISA bridge and the kernel correctly recognizes it as such. The five I/O port ranges the kernel prints seem to correspond to the five "legacy devices" the south bridge contains. Here's the relevant part of the dmesg output:
Code:
alix# dmesg | grep isa
isab0: <PCI-ISA bridge> port 0x6000-0x6007,0x6100-0x61ff,0x6200-0x623f,0x9d00-0x9d7f,0x9c00-0x9c3f at device 15.0 on pci0

vga0: <Generic ISA VGA> at port 0x3c0-0x3df iomem 0xa0000-0xbffff on isa0
This is all fine, but I'd like to add a kernel device driver that uses the I/O port range 0x6000-0x6007. So my approach is to add a child to the ISA bus, and have the driver use
bus_alloc_resource_any(9) to get a hold off the port range. Unfortunately,
bus_alloc_resource_any(9) fails :-(
Code:
alix# kldload /tmp/glxiic.ko
glxiic0: <AMD CS5536 SMBus/I2C controller> at port 0x6000-0x6007 on isa0
glxiic0: bus_alloc_resource_any(9) failed!
device_attach: glxiic0 attach returned 6
I read the developer's handbook and it seems the ISA bus driver needs to be told what I/O port range resource ID 0 corresponds to. So I added an identify routine to my driver that uses
bus_set_resource(9) to set up the resource ID (I couldn't get the
device.hints mechanism to work):
Code:
uint64_t lbar;
u_long ioport, port_start, port_count;
int rc;
lbar = rdmsr(MSR_LBAR_SMB);
if (!(lbar & (1LL << 32))) {
if (bootverbose) {
device_printf(dev, "I/O memory mapping is not enabled by platform "
"firmware!\n");
}
goto out;
}
ioport = (lbar & 0xFFF8);
rc = bus_get_resource(dev, SYS_RES_IOPORT, 0, &port_start, &port_count);
if ((port_start == ioport) && (port_count == RES_SIZE)) {
goto out;
}
rc = bus_set_resource(dev, SYS_RES_IOPORT, 0, ioport, RES_SIZE);
if (bootverbose && rc) {
device_printf(dev, "bus_set_resource(9) failed with rc=%i\n", rc);
}
Here's the code in the attach routine that fails:
Code:
sc->res_id = 0;
sc->res_io = bus_alloc_resource_any(dev, SYS_RES_IOPORT, &sc->res_id,
RF_ACTIVE);
if (sc->res_io == NULL) {
device_printf(dev, "bus_alloc_resource_any(9) failed!\n");
goto out;
}
What am I doing wrong? Has the isab code already allocated the port range? If so, how do I get it to give me a hold off the resource?
