Intel 21152 Pci To Pci Bridge Driver For Mac

But so far I haven't succeeded in setting it up. In modern time it is a piece of antiques.

But please don't blame me, I didn't have a free PCIe slot to insert a newer card. But let's go back to the business. DFE-580TX simply consists of four DL10050C MAC/PHY microcontrollers connected to one Intel S21152BB PCI-to-PCI bridge.

And my problem consists in that I cannot make the bridge work. Here is lspci printout: Code: root@ktulhu:0:/home/krokoziabla# lspci -knn.

You can see that the bridge is present but is not served by any driver. Also in the printout the four Ethernet DL100C50 Ethernet controllers are absent which quite logical. And probably you may have noticed those 96 instances of MosChip Semiconductor device on bus 04. Actually they are false devices. In fact there are only 3 real devices at bus 03 (2 serial ports + 1 parallel). So it appears the Intel bridge drives the kernel mad a bit. I spent quite a lot of time trying to understand which driver is needed for it.

But still I don't have an answer. As far as I have understood PCI bridges are controlled from Code: BUS options (PCI etc.) - menu in 'make menuconfig'. But I fail to find there any explicit mention about different kinds of bridges. In my motherboard there are other PCI bridges: Code: 00:1c.2 PCI bridge 0604: Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 3 8086:1c14 (rev b5) Kernel driver in use: pcieport And you can see that the bridge is controlled by pcieport driver.

But the driver is enabled by this menu item: Code: BUS options (PCI etc.) -. PCI support. PCI Express support And there is no hint about the supported bus controller/bus bridges.

I tried to grep the kernel sources against 21152 word. The only mention related to the case was in 'include/linux/pciids.h' header: Code: #define PCIDEVICEIDINTELS21152BB 0xb152 But the macro isn't used anywhere in the code. May it mean that the device is not supported by the kernel any longer?

I tried to run Ubuntu LiveCD to see which driver it would propose for the bridge. Ubuntu decided to use shpchp driver for all PCI bridges I had. But from one hand side it didn't help because despite lspci told me that the bridge was controlled by the driver Ubuntu didn't find the four Ethernet controllers and there also were 96 false devices. From the other hand shpchp driver is needed for hot-plugable PCI devices AFAIU but not for bridges. There are also two more PCI bridges on my PC which are not recognized by the kernel: Code: 02:00.0 PCI bridge 0604: Integrated Technology Express, Inc.

Device 1283:8892 (rev 10) 05:00.0 PCI bridge 0604: PLX Technology, Inc. PEX8112 x1 Lane PCI Express-to-PCI Bridge 10b5:8112 (rev aa) Grep through the sources shows that the latter one is somehow connected with my sound card, probably it resides on it. But the card is identified as a separate device controlled by a separate driver. I do not know where I should move father.

Can anyone suggest how should I configure my kernel to make the bridges work? Thanks in advance.

Add Code: lastbus=N where N is the last pcibus you want the kernel to search for. Normally, the kernel gets help from the BIOS but your card may not have a BIOS, so the the kernel may not see the buesses on the far side of the bridge. See /usr/src/linux/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt Regards, NeddySeagoon Computer users fall into two groups:- those that do backups those that have never had a hard drive fail.

Are you certain your pci card(s) (and pci slots on the board) are okay? When my 3c905 card died it was detected as 16 pci devices by the kernel. To me your main problem seems to be a failing PCI device which disrupts the others.

Experiment with the 'pci' kernel parameter a bit. See the 'pci=option' Section in linux/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt try at least 'pci=conf1' conf2, bios, noacpi krokoziabla n00b Joined: 09 May 2013 Posts: 39 Location: Russia Posted: Sat May 25, 2013 10:30 am Post subject: roarinelk & NeddySeagoon, thank you for your replies.

I'm glad to learn that the bridge is uncommanded, I do not need to bother about drivers. And it seems all the three bridges are. I've done some tests of the kernel with pci parameter values you suggested and also some others. Also I've made two tests against Windows. At first I put the board into another PC with Windows. The bridge was identified without a problem and I saw the four Ethernet adapters. So I can consider the board healthy.

The next thing I did was taking the hard disk from the other PC and connecting it to my Gentoo PC. That way I wanted to see how Windows would identify the bridge in the original PCI topology. And to my grief the bridge wasn't correctly identified and I saw the same 96 false devices. So it may be the problem of the compatibility between my motherboard and the network card although both of them comply with PCI 2.2 standard. BTW, the slot also seems to be healthy because before this network card another NIC worked quite well in it.

I've checked BIOS options and it looks like there is not that much to control behaviour of PCIe/PCI buses. The last suspicious thing that worries me is the PCI topology of my system.
