Re: MPC8245 Internal Duart and Linux

["Chuck Partridge" <Chuck_Partridge@amx.com>]

I'm using the South Bridge's 8259 controllers and putting the 8245 EPIC in pass through mode, so all internal 8245 interrupts are routed out the L_INT pin to one of the ALI's PCI_IRQ pins.

Does this seem like something very wrong?

I originally thought this would be the easiest way to handle this from an IRQ standpoint, but now know that I have never seen anyone else do this.

This may or may not be the problem, but your IRQs are faulty.

The internal 8245 IRQs are 137 and 138.

You need to call openpic_set_sources() before openpic_init() to get
these initialized.

My utx8245_init_IRQ() contains:

     openpic_set_sources(0, 32, NULL);       /* up to serial interrupt 15 */
     openpic_set_sources(129, 3, NULL);      /* MPC8245 I2C, DMA0, DMA1 */
     openpic_set_sources(134, 1, NULL);      /* MPC8245 Message Unit */
     openpic_set_sources(137, 2, NULL);      /* MPC8245 DUART */
     openpic_init(1, 0, 0, -1);
