RE: [gentoo-sparc] [Fwd: [Bug 3914] ATI Mach64 locks up sparc pos t 6.8.99.3]

Ferris,
I might be able to help.  I have a SunBlade 100 with the ATI Rage XL chip.  If I remember correctly, this uses the mach64 drivers in xorg-7.x (6.8.x used ati).  However, I am a couple days away from even getting through the modular migration.  Right now I am stuck on getting mesa-6.5 compiled.

Is anyone in a position to verify this?  It's basically a proposed
one-line fix for the sparc/mach64 lockup problem with xorg-x11-7.1, and
if it works, it's better than remove-altix.

The actual proposed patch looks like

I have attached it as jparnes.patch, as well.  I have verified that the
patch installs, and that linuxPci.c compiles with it applied, but I do
not have a mach64 system on which to test it.

------- Additional Comments From jbarnes@××××××××××××.org  2006-08-23 09:20 -------
The snippet below (from the revert patch) removes the new 
linuxTransAddrBusToHost routine from the PCI mapping function table.  This 
routine is *supposed* to be generic, but it may well be broken on some sparc64 
configurations.  Can you try building a tree without the revert patch but with 
that line protected #if defined(__ia64__) ... #endif instead of removed 
entirely?  That would tell us for sure if the xf86GetOSOffsetFromPCI routine 
was the culprit (it probably is, it has quite a few shortcomings).

If that works, simply protecting that line with an #ifdef __ia64__ might be a 
good short term fix...

Thanks,
Jesse
