On UP1100 Alpha with an AGP slot and "Advanced Micro Devices [AMD]
AMD-751 [Irongate] System Controller" an attempt to use 'agpgart'
support ends up with an oops. I tried 2.2.17 and 2.2.18pre15 kernels.
With CONFIG_AGP=y and CONFIG_AGP_AMD=y resulting kernel gets stuck
after oops and does not boot. If CONFIG_AGP=m is used then an attempt
to insert 'agpgart' module ends up with the following oops (after
a run through 'ksymoops'):
ksymoops 2.3.4 on alpha 2.2.18pre15x. Options used
-V (default)
-k /proc/ksyms (default)
-l /proc/modules (default)
-o /lib/modules/2.2.18pre15x/ (default)
-m /boot/System.map-2.2.18pre15x (specified)

followed by a "Segmentation fault" from insmod. Unfortunately option
-m produces an empty symbol map for the module; also later the module
is not removable with the following output from lsmod:
agpgart 21312 1 (initializing)
This bomb happens on this code
/* Write out the address of the gatt table */
OUTREG32(amd_irongate_private.registers, AMD_ATTBASE,
agp_bridge.gatt_bus_addr);
from amd_irongate_configure() in drivers/char/agp/agpgart_be.c.
I dropped few printk's there like that:
/* Get the memory mapped registers */
pci_read_config_dword(agp_bridge.dev, AMD_MMBASE, &temp);
printk(KERN_INFO PFX "Read irongate temp %x\n", temp);
temp = (temp & PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_MEM_MASK);
printk(KERN_INFO PFX "Masked temp to %x\n", temp);
amd_irongate_private.registers = (volatile u8 *) ioremap(temp, 4096);
printk(KERN_INFO PFX "Updated private registers to %x\n",
amd_irongate_private.registers);
and results are as follows:
Linux agpgart interface v0.99 (c) Jeff Hartmann
agpgart: Maximum main memory to use for agp memory: 204M
agpgart: Detected AMD Irongate chipset
agpgart: Read irongate temp 62000008

agpgart: Updated private registers to 62000000

Any ideas what is wrong with this picture?
BTW - despite the following commment in drivers/char/drm/drm.h
"Dec 1999, Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net>, move to generic cmpxchg."
an attempt to compile 'drm' module includes some x86 specific code
from drivers/char/drm/drmP.h, like this:
__asm__ __volatile__(LOCK_PREFIX "cmpxchgb %b1,%2"
: "=a"(prev)
: "q"(new), "m"(*__xg(ptr)), "0"(old)
: "memory");
and, as you can guess, does not compile on Alpha. But that is the
next problem after 'agpgart'. :-)
