I now have a custom board with 460EX and the same PLX bridge, running 2.6.23-rc3 Things look better here, as u-boot is now able to properly detect PLX and device behind

pci_write_config_dword(dev, PCI_PRIMARY_BUS,
                               buses & ~0xffffff);

If this line is removed, PLX is detected twice, see below. I also get hard reset
if pass test is modified as you requested and broken test removed.

Any ideas how to fix this ? I was suspecting PLX evaluation board, but
PLX on our custom board seems to be OK, so it looks like kernel needs fixing.

I have no idea no. It looks like something is wrong with the PLX bridge
but again, I don't know why that would cause the 460EX to hard reset
like that, unless some of the PCIe error handling of the 460 has been
configured to cause such a reset on some kind of errors (which it
shouldn't at least not in host mode).

Can you try instead of writing all the bus number related registers in
one single dword write above, writing them byte by byte ? Which one is
causing the reset ? Does it reset whatever the value you write there
is ?

It looks like something is causing a hard reset as soon as you try to
configure the PLX bridge and without configuring it properly I fail to
see how you'll get things working.


OK, I'll try writing byte by byte. The funny thing is the u-boot also writes the
same value to PCI_PRIMARY_BUS register and it doesn't cause reset.

Thanks a lot.

Felix.
