Description

Resetting the bit to zero can be done in *_shutdown by reading the register, set it (for example, reg &= ~(1 << 24)) and write it back with pci_write_long(dev, SOME_SPECIAL_REG, reg).

It's related to next programmers:

  • atahpt.c
  • drkaiser.c
  • gfxnvidia.c
  • it8212.c

See the comment thread in the linked patch for more details.

Shouldn't this go to the cleanup tracker?

  • Description updated (diff)

Reversible writes were introduced in commit 2bee8cf898007687c58ddb29eb119b461704f18a . Before this commit, the programmers were restoring a PCI value themselves, e.g:

atahpt :

uint32_t reg32;

/* Disable flash access again. */
reg32 = pci_read_long(pcidev_dev, REG_FLASH_ACCESS);
reg32 &= ~(1 << 24);
pci_write_long(pcidev_dev, REG_FLASH_ACCESS, reg32);

drkaiser :

/* Write protect the flash again. */
pci_write_word(pcidev_dev, PCI_MAGIC_DRKAISER_ADDR, 0);

gfxnvidia :

uint32_t reg32;

/* Disallow access to flash interface (and re-enable screen). */
reg32 = pci_read_long(pcidev_dev, 0x50);
reg32 |= (1 << 0);
pci_write_long(pcidev_dev, 0x50, reg32);
