Hi,
I am a beginner to linux. Recently i have got the chance to work with linux kernel and its not pretty much easy for me to get through. Hope
i would have your support. I am trying to boot up linux kernel to a alpha sh board(sh-7786) and have my device plugged to the pcie slot of
sh board. I built an image with kernel 2.6.34 and I successfully booted the linux kernel in the sh board. I wrote a simple driver to read the BAR register value. But when i tried to access my plugged device, I see a problem. Through lspci i can find the device attached. I went through the device capabilities too. But when I tried to read
the device BAR register I get some junk data which is incorrect. I plugged the same in the i386 pcie board and was able to read through the
BAR register successfully with the same sample driver program. Please
help me If I have missed something or done something wrong.
I am confused as I can read the pid and vid of the device but not its
register properly?
Do i have to worry about "bridge window [io disabled]" in the boot
message.
The boot log is as follows:
