Hey, I've finally came back to my 14e4:4329 with not working DMA. I hoped disabling parity will make my DMA work, but this didn't do the trick.
The card is PCI one with following params: SSB 2.4 BCM4321 SPROM: 4 PMU: ─ Core rev: 11 PHY: N / 1 Radio: 0x2055 / 4 I've dumped wl and b43 ops and compare them. Noticed something interesting in DMA setup. wl: read32 0xc0200200 -> 0x00000000 write32 0xc0200200 <- 0x00000801 write32 0xc0200208 <- 0x5f310000 write32 0xc020020c <- 0x00000000 b43: write32 0xc0200200 <- 0x00000801 write32 0xc0200208 <- 0x198b2000 write32 0xc020020c <- 0x80000000 Can you see the difference? wl does not put routing (translation) bits in 0x20c at all. 0x208 on the other hand is suspicious. It looks that wl is: 1) Using 0x40000000 routing instead of 0x80000000 routing 2) wl puts routing bits in addrlo instead of addrhi According to the specs, routing goes always to the addrhi: > The address 2 field is as follows (address 1 contains all address bits): > Mask Function > 0x3FFFFFFF Address > 0xC0000000 Routing So I've hacked b43 to use 0x40000000 as translation and to put routing in addrlo. Wohoo, this helped! For the first time I saw packets using DMA engine. Now, the question: when for real we should use such a solution? Larry, could you check your driver? Can you see anything about this? Is this maybe PCI (not PCIe!) specific? -- Rafał _______________________________________________ b43-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/b43-dev
