It does actually produce the right bit pattern for the SIUEXR based on the
interrupt being passed in even on the 8272 family as Anton point out.
My concern is that throughout the tree there are defines made based on the code's
8260 lineage that are confusing to anyone trying to discern functionality on
slightly different processor families. In this case the define for CPM_IRQ_PORTC15 &
CPM_IRQ_PORTC0 are isolated within the cpm2_pic source file instead of a public header
which presents less of a problem. Of course port c 15's interrupt on the 8272 is 50 not
48 as the define states. Not sure making the defines generic will make it any clearer, just
force the person to dig deeper to see exactly what is going on.
I am trying to avoid the situation like the one where we don't
have defines in cpm2.h for the 8272's variations in SIUMCR. We have code that looks like it
changing external cache configuration but its really setting where the burst addresses appear on a 8272.
Don't know the "right" way to make the code obvious, but this patch does fix a long lingering
problem. My thought is to apply it as is, its better than what is there.
I suspect the the right fix for all the minor variations in the CPM on different
devices will never happen. I don't want to go ifdef crazy for sure, but in my u-boot tree
I have them around the bits that differ between devices. This allows me to find errors caused by unknown
routines setting hardware functions that are invalid at compile time.
Can't wait for all the surprises in this area on my next project, an 8568.
