Well, I'm having a very related issue with the U-Boot on MPC85xx: recentlyI've noticed that it started allocating PCI I/O space from 0 (while the older versions started from 0x1000). The IDE core can't tolerate this, giving me such messages on bootup:
PDC20269: inconsistent baseregs (BIOS) for port 0, skipping
when I have Promise Ultra133TX2 card inserted into PCI alone. I've looked thru the U-Boot sources and commit history but failed to locate the change that led to this...
It's actually much worse than just that. When I also plug in some other PCI card so Ultra133TX2 doesn't get the zero addresses anymore, I'm getting this:
eepro100.c: $Revision: 1.36 $ 2000/11/17 Modified by Andrey V. Savochkin saw@saw.sw.com.sg and others eth3: Invalid EEPROM checksum 0xfffe, check settings before activating this device! eth3: OEM i82557/i82558 10/100 Ethernet, 00:00:00:00:FF:FF, IRQ 52. [...] PDC20269: 100% native mode on irq 51 ide2: BM-DMA at 0x0060-0x0067, BIOS settings: hde:pio, hdf:pio PDC20269: simplex device: DMA disabled ide3: PDC20269 Bus-Master DMA disabled (BIOS)
I've just verified that both these cards are working OK in x86 box As for the simplex message, I've encountered this some months ago and it was caused by invalid programming of the MPC85xx bridge PCI/X outbound translation address register for the I/O space or at least by the non-zero value of the bus I/O address in the "ranges" property of the bridge device node in the device tree... I'm somewhat confused now since I know that the relevant U-Boot code has been fixed but it looks like that made it only worse -- I was using the custom patched version of U-Boot before which missed that fix:
