Hi Frank,


<span class="quote">> With further kernel debugging, we found that in via_driver_load() function,
> it has the code as below:
> #if __OS_HAS_AGP
>    if ((dev_priv->engine_type > VIA_ENG_H2) ||
>        (dev->agp && drm_pci_device_is_agp(dev))) {

>            if (!ret)
>                    via_agp_engine_init(dev_priv);
>            else
>                    DRM_ERROR("Failed to allocate AGP\n");
>    }
> #endif

> Actually dev->agp is NULL for VX900. But because dev_priv->engine_type value
> is greater than VIA_ENG_H2, via_detect_agp() is called.
> I am not sure what does engine_type mean? Can anybody give some comments?

H2 or H6 appears to be the DMA engine revision.
