mpc8270 & Intel 82551ER on 2.6.17.14

[Nicholas Hickman]

Pradyumna,

With the help of some others I have finally figured it out.  I took a
step back and read the manual over and over along with debugging my
U-boot until it worked.  My issue there was with the SIUMCR. Since I now
had that working in U-boot I moved on to the kernel where I found that I
was redefining the SIUMCR here:

arch/ppc/syslib/m82xx_pci.c 
approx line 248
#elif defined CONFIG_PQ2FADS || MYBOARD
        /*
         * Setting required to enable IRQ1-IRQ7 (SIUMCR [DPPC]),
         * and local bus for PCI (SIUMCR [LBPC]).
         */
        immap->im_siu_conf.siu_82xx.sc_siumcr =

I was entering this routine since I was basing my config off of the
PQ2FADS board.  I removed my board definition from the elif and
everything seems to be working fine.

Good luck!


-Nick

I have the same, exact same problem. But there are some of the
differences with the setup though. I have an MPC5200B and the other
difference is that I have a 2.6.21-rt3. However its the same ethernet
controller.

I am trying out a few things here, some of them being complete guesses.
But if I hit something, I will let this list know. Anyone else had
similar issues ? Request you to please holler.
