He was posting a question for me. The external device (PLX8616
non-transparent bridge) which is sending the interrupt is connected
to the
first PCIE controller. The PCIE controller is configured in RC mode
and is
"x4". I'm using legacy (INTx) interrupts from the external switch
NTB port.
The NTB port always generates INTA, but is swizzled by the upstream
port of
the PLX8616 switch, so it comes to the PCIE controller as INTB I
believe.
It works fine when the the 8572 and 8616 both start after power-on
reset.
Can send multiple interrupts and each is acknowledged properly.
However,
after I generate a "hot reset" event from the PCIE controller to the
upstream port on the 8616 (or link goes down/up), it no longer seems
to
propagate the INTx interrupt to the CPU. Either the 8616 is not
sending the
interrrupt or the 8572 is ignoring/masking it. I'm trying to
determine
which device is at fault. I don't have access to a PCIE analyzer at
the
moment. Looking for some more visibility into received interrupts
within
the 8572 PCIE or MPIC.
FYI, I have not tried MSI yet but will soon.
So I'll ask the same questions. I can point you at some registers to
look at but wanted the details I asked about earlier.
