[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/10] Fix versatile_pci (and break versatilepb linu


From: Peter Maydell
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/10] Fix versatile_pci (and break versatilepb linux guests!)
Date: Sun, 24 Mar 2013 11:32:30 +0000

This patch series fixes a number of serious bugs in our emulation of
the PCI controller found on VersatilePB and the early Realview boards:
 * our interrupt mapping was totally wrong
 * we weren't implementing the PCI memory windows
 * the I/O window wasn't mapped on VersatilePB
 * realview mapped things at the wrong addresses
 * we didn't implement the controller's registers at all
It also updates to some reasonable approximation to QOM best practice,
including subclassing pci_host rather than doing everything by hand.

I haven't implemented support for the SMAP registers (which control
how the controller converts accesses made by bus-mastering PCI
devices into system addresses). For the moment we rely on the fact
that Linux always maps things 1:1. (It wouldn't be too hard to add
SMAP support but it requires changing QEMU's pci code to allow a
controller to pass in a MemoryRegion* for DMA to use instead of
the system address space, so I prefer to leave that for another series.)

Patchset tested on both versatilepb and realview, using a set of
Linux kernel patches written by Arnd Bergmann:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2010-October/029040.html
which were in turn tested against real PB926 and PB1176 hardware.


 * WARNING WARNING *

This patchset will break any use of PCI (including the default SCSI
card) on versatilepb with current Linux kernels, because those kernels
have the matching bug in interrupt mapping to old QEMU.

I've provided a property for enabling the old broken IRQ mapping;
this can be enabled with the command line option:
      -global versatile_pci.broken-irq-mapping=1

(If anybody wants to suggest a better way of handling this please do.)
