Could you please explain which problem this patch is supposed to fix?
The rtl8139 specification says the configuration registers can be accessed through PCI memory mapping or PCI IO mapping.
The u-boot driver uses PCI memory mapping, but it doesn't work, so I changed it to PCI IO mapping.
On my target RTL8139 or its variant works fine without such a change. Why do you think doesn't work? Could you elaborate please?
When I used PCI memory mapping to access rtl8139 configuration registers, like MAC0-MAC05, the CPU paniced, as I described in the subject "a problem about rtl8139 driver on sandpoint8245board" I proposed Sep. 30th 2007.
After changing to PCI IO mapping, the problem was solved.
The driver of rtl8139 in Linux Kernel also uses PCI IO mapping to access the configuration registers.
Do you mean CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO?
I don't what you mean by CONFIG_8139TOO_PIO, there is not such a define in U-Boot.
thanks,
