Hi Johan,
From the pci log it looks like that BAR registers are not mapped properly by the BIOS/U-boot. Looks like you have 3 BARS which are asking for memory, But that are not spaced apart propoerly. Mean physical address difference between BAR0 and BAR2 shall be 512 Megabyte, but that is not what it is programmed.
Need to fix up the memory allocation first. then we need to see if the DMA descriptor are defimed propoerly. As you are saying you are porting the driver from X-86 to PPC. SO endian coversion is required.....

Hello,
I am working on porting a PCI driver from I386-Linux to PPC (MVME-3100).
The device is a Reflective Memory card (VMIC 5565), and we use a driver
based on the standard Linux driver, provided by the supplier.
I try to start a DMA transfer (using the DMA engine on the PCI card)
from user space, but then I get a PCI Error. The following data is
displayed:
PCI Error!
PCI ERROR DETECT REG 0x00000042
PCI ERROR ADDRESS REG 0x00fffa00
PCI ERROR EXT ADDRESS REG 0x00000000
PCI ERROR ATTRIBUTES REG 0x0000c001
PCI ERROR DATA HIGH REG 0x60010004
PCI ERROR DATA LOW REG 0x10060020
PCI STATUS REG 0x0000
PCI GASKET TIMER REG 0x00003fff
PCI PCIX TIMER REG 0x01ffffff
Access to the registers from kernel mode is no problem. I did an mmap to
map the registers into user space, and then access the registers as an
array of chars or ints. Is there a limitation in access to PCI registers
from user space on PPC?
When I try to do this in kernel mode I don't get any errors, but the
transfer is not started. I am not sure if this is a SW problem, or that
it might be caused by the PCI-PCI bridge.
The code runs perfectly on a I386 platform, and I use read[bwl] and
write[bwl] to access the registers, so this should fix the endianess
problems that exist.
Below is the PCI information from the card:
01:00.0 Network controller: VMIC: Unknown device 5565 (rev 01)
Subsystem: PLX Technology, Inc.: Unknown device 9656
Flags: 66Mhz, medium devsel, IRQ 52

Kind regards,
Johan Borkhuis
