Hi Ben,
I mentioned the HD 5450 purely as a matter of archeological interest.
Ok, in that case looking at the lspci -tv output doesn't tell us
anything new.
I suspected, but couldn't prove, that the problem might have something
to do with the bridge (IBM POWER8 Host Bridge (PHB3)).
In that
Hi Christian, Michel, Alex, et al.,
I mentioned the HD 5450 purely as a matter of archeological interest.
Back to the FirePro 2270 and Embedded Radeon E6465:
I've attached text from both "lspci -tv" and "lspci -v."
Actually I'm attaching a couple of different "lspci -v" outputs, one
with the Fir

That's what IBM is most interested in at this juncture:
FirePro 2270
Embedded Radeon E6465
The E6465 already worked without this patch.

Alex asked what other GPUs I've tested on, and the answer is: E6465 (Caicos
GPU).

There must be a PCIe-to-PCI bridge on that board. The GPU itself is
always PCIe,
One of my colleagues did discover a "Radeon HG 5450 PCI" from February
2010 which did, apparently, have a Cedar GPU and very definitely had a
(plain old) PCI connector.
But I take your point, and will just drop the PCI/PCIE check.

I considered that, but I'm only equipped to test on a few cards--the ones
IBM is interested in.
So this Cedar-specific change fixes the problem on the FirePro 2270; the
other cards seem
perfectly capable of handling 40+ bit DMA addresses on the Power8 platform.

Alex, Christian, et al.
Thanks for your rapid response!
I can certainly make the change PPC-only (#ifdef CONFIG_PPC64...) and I
think
that's the safest way to go right now. It makes the patch very specific to
Cedar
on PowerPC64, so it doesn't break anything that may have come to depend on
