Hi,
i found a bug in uninorth-agp.c, function uninorth_fetch_size.
the line
size <http://lxr.free-electrons.com/ident?i=size> =memparse <http://lxr.free-electrons.com/ident?i=memparse>(aperture <http://lxr.free-electrons.com/ident?i=aperture>, &aperture <http://lxr.free-electrons.com/ident?i=aperture>) >> 20;
always sets size to zero which makes the driver allocate the default size of 256 MB which is obviously too large for older uninorth revisions.
I split the line into memparse and shifting and inserted diagnostic messages, output with uninorth_agp.aperture = 32 as boot parameter:
Feb 15 19:12:44 mac-mini kernel: [ 2.568636] agpgart-uninorth 0000:00:0b.0: size in uninorth_fetch_size after memparse: 32
Feb 15 19:12:44 mac-mini kernel: [ 2.568642] agpgart-uninorth 0000:00:0b.0: size after >> 20: 0
It would be nice if a patch could be produced so i can experiment with
different aperture sizes without having to rebuild the kernel every time :-)
Cheers
Jochen
