wpaul 2005-10-25 06:53:45 UTC FreeBSD src repository Modified files: sys/dev/pci pci.c Log: Add a 1 microsecond delay in pci_add_children(), right before the read of the PCIR_HDRTYPE register. It's the value returned from this read access that determines whether or not we decide a device is present at the current slot index. For some reason that I can't adequately explain, this read fails on my machine when probing the USB controller on my machine (which happens a multifunction device at slot index 3 hung off the PCI-PCI bridge on the AMD8111 (bus index 1)). The read will return 0xFF even though it should return 0x80 to indicate the presence of a multifunction device. As near as I can tell, there's some timing issue involved with reading the 'dead' slot indexes 0 through 2 that causes the read of the actual device at slot 3 to fail. I tried a couple of different tricks to correct the problem (the patch to amd64/pci/pci_cfgreg.c fixes it for the amd64 arch), but adding this delay is the only thing that always allows the USB controllers to be correctly probed 100% of the time. Whatever the problem is, it's likely confined to the AMD8111 chipset. However, a simple 1us delay is fairly harmless and should have no side effects for other hardware. I consider this to be voodoo, but it's fairly benign voodoo and it makes my USB keyboard and mouse work again. Note that this is the second time that I've had to resort to a 1us delay to fix a PCI-related problem with this AMD8111/Opteron system (the first being a fix I made a while back to the NDISulator). It's possible the delay really belongs in the cfgreg code itself, or that pci_cfgreg needs some custom hackery for an errata in the 8111. (I checked but couldn't find any documented errata on AMD's site that could account for these problems.) Revision Changes Path 1.300 +1 -0 src/sys/dev/pci/pci.c
