Hi,
do you remember my problem with the pci-express? I have an
mpc8641d_hpcn (rev. 2.0) board connected via pci-express with the
Xilinx ML555 evaluation board. I'm using the 2.6.24 kernel. I'm
observing this strange behavior:
1) I turn on the board and I stop the U-boot
2) I load the FPGA microcode
3) I start the system
4) I load the driver module and I read a version register in the FPGA
5) The system crashes with a "machine check exception: transfer
error ack signal"
6) reboot
7) same procedure (without load the FPGA again)
8) now I can read the registers!
If I repeat the procedure again it doesn't work anymore. I think
it's a problem with pci-express controller. Have you got any
suggestions?
Thanks.
Where are you loading the FPGA microcode (linux, u-boot)? Also, is
the FPGA the only device connected over PCIe?
