Problems with Sonnet Tempo ATA-100 - Promise 20268 Is it supported?

[Kevin B. Hendricks]

Hi,

I think the promise driver is currently in a stat of flux.  All throughout
the code they are trying to support two different classes of chipsets one
of which uses IO that the other one can't use.

So in many places they have two differnt routines (for example the reset
routines)

void pdc202xx_new_reset (ide_drive_t *drive)
{
	OUT_BYTE(0x04,IDE_CONTROL_REG);
	mdelay(1000);
	OUT_BYTE(0x00,IDE_CONTROL_REG);
	mdelay(1000);
	printk("PDC202XX: %s channel reset.\n",
		HWIF(drive)->channel ? "Secondary" : "Primary");
}

void pdc202xx_reset (ide_drive_t *drive)
{
	unsigned long high_16	= pci_resource_start(HWIF(drive)->pci_dev, 4);
	byte udma_speed_flag	= IN_BYTE(high_16 + 0x001f);

	OUT_BYTE(udma_speed_flag | 0x10, high_16 + 0x001f);
	mdelay(100);
	OUT_BYTE(udma_speed_flag & ~0x10, high_16 + 0x001f);
	mdelay(2000);		/* 2 seconds ?! */
	printk("PDC202XX: %s channel reset.\n",
		HWIF(drive)->channel ? "Secondary" : "Primary");
}


Notice for the "new" chipsets they do not  do I/O to the 0x041f location
and there abouts.

This is true all the way through the code  since they need to special case
many of the actual control  byte/word writing to handle the two different
classes of chips (old and new).

My chip is actually the a "newchip" 20268 and as such should not be doing
I/O to those locations according to my error messages.  But unfortunately,
the pci_init_pdc202xx routine does the following:


unsigned int __init pci_init_pdc202xx (struct pci_dev *dev, const char
*name)
{
	unsigned long high_16	= pci_resource_start(dev, 4);
	byte udma_speed_flag	= IN_BYTE(high_16 + 0x001f);
	byte primary_mode	= IN_BYTE(high_16 + 0x001a);
	byte secondary_mode	= IN_BYTE(high_16 + 0x001b);
	byte newchip		= 0;

	if (dev->resource[PCI_ROM_RESOURCE].start) {
		pci_write_config_dword(dev, PCI_ROM_ADDRESS,
dev->resource[PCI_ROM_RESOURCE].start | PCI_ROM_ADDRESS_ENABLE);
		printk("%s: ROM enabled at 0x%08lx\n", name,
dev->resource[PCI_ROM_RESOURCE].start);
	}

	switch (dev->device) {
		case PCI_DEVICE_ID_PROMISE_20276:
		case PCI_DEVICE_ID_PROMISE_20275:
		case PCI_DEVICE_ID_PROMISE_20269:
		case PCI_DEVICE_ID_PROMISE_20268R:
		case PCI_DEVICE_ID_PROMISE_20268:
			newchip = 1;
			break;


Does the io upfront to store away chip speed and things without finding out
which chipset they are working with first.

Therefore I get the:


PDC20268: IDE controller on PCI bus 01 dev a0
PDC20268: chipset revision 2
PDC20268: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later
IN from bad port 41f at c02cfa68
IN from bad port 41a at c02cfa84
IN from bad port 41b at c02cfaa0
PDC20268: ROM enabled at 0x80090000

Messages.

Has anyone used the Sonnet Tempo ATA 100 card with the Promise 20268
chipset support on their machines?

Ideas anyone?

Thanks,

Kevin
