Subject: [PATCH] MPC52xx PCI write combine timer
Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2008 11:53:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4875DC0C.2060609@matrix-vision.de> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 680 bytes --]

On MPC52xx the PCI target control register (PCITCR) @ MBAR + 0xD6C is initialized with
only bit 7 (Latrule disable) set. The 8-Bit write combine timer (Bits 24..31) should be
also set to a reasonable value _greater zero_ (0x08 = default) since setting it to 0x00
leads to _very poor_ performance as a PCI target since external burst won't be possible
at all.

Setting the WCT to 0x08 (cache-line size) leads to good overall perfomance.
