P2041 : PCIe devices' driver causing BUS Error

madhurwani — Tue, 08 Mar 2016 13:32:13 GMT

We're using Pericom's 608GP extender. Using the same, we're able to read the configuration space of the every PCIe device. However, we're not able to access the BAR regions of any device.

Whenever we try to read/write to this BAR regions the same through the kernel driver, we're getting following bus error:

Machine check in kernel mode.

Bus error

We've written the driver in following way:

res = pci_enable_device(pdev);
if (res) {
PERR("pci device enable failed\n");
return -EFAULT;
}
basePhys = pci_resource_start(pdev,0);
baseLength = pci_resource_len(pdev,0);
if(pci_request_region(pdev,0,DRIVER_NAME)==0) {
PINFO("GOT The Resource\n");
}
if((pci_resource_flags(pdev,0) & IORESOURCE_MEM) != IORESOURCE_MEM) {
PINFO("Not Equal to IORESOURCE_MEM\n");
}
else {
PINFO("Equal to IORESOURCE_MEM\n");
}
actVirtAddr = (unsigned long) bus_to_virt(basePhys); //for PowerPC p2041 architecture we have to do this function call
//because p2041 supports 36Byte addressing
virtAddress = (unsigned long) ioremap(actVirtAddr,baseLength);
elpc_adc_comm_address = virtAddress;
