Bug still exists in 2.4.23-pre6.
Attached new dmesg.
Comment 5 Len Brown 2003-10-06 10:35:46 UTC
yep, once dos2unix'd, the dmesg for -pre5 and pre6 are pretty much the same. 
Any chance you can attach the dmesg for -pre4 for the success case? 
It would also be helpful to see /proc/interrupts for the success and failing case. 
 
I'm not familiar with the psc21110xi, can you attach the dmidecode output to describe it? 
http://www.nongnu.org/dmidecode/ 
 
Also, please attach the output from acpidmp, available in /usr/sbin/, or in here

Comment 17 Len Brown 2003-10-09 23:50:40 UTC
Thanks for all the info.  Looks like in pre5 one of your three usb-ohci's 
is now sharing an interrupt with acpi. 
 
pre4: 
  9:       4756    IO-APIC-edge  usb-ohci 
 20:       6927   IO-APIC-level  acpi 
pre5: 
 20:          1   IO-APIC-level  acpi, usb-ohci 
 
$ acpixtract APIC acpidmp |madt 
ACPI: APIC (v001 ASUS   P4S8X    0x42302e31 MSFT 0x31313031) @ 0x(nil) 
ACPI: IOAPIC (id[0x02] address[0xfec00000] global_irq_base[0x0]) 
ACPI: INT_SRC_OVR (bus[0] irq[0x0] global_irq[0x2] polarity[0x0] trigger[0x1]) 
ACPI: INT_SRC_OVR (bus[0] irq[0x9] global_irq[0x14] polarity[0x3] trigger[0x3]) 
ACPI: LAPIC_NMI (acpi_id[0x00] polarity[0x1] trigger[0x1] lint[0x1]) 
ACPI: LAPIC (acpi_id[0x00] lapic_id[0x00] enabled) 
Length 90 OK 
Checksum OK 
 
So IRQ20 looks correct for the ACPI interrupt. 
Though it is curious that it was registering acpi events in -pre4 but just 1 intr in -pre5. 
 
It seems that -pre4 failed to find an interrupt for USB and left it at 9 while -pre5 assigned 20: 
 
<  pci_irq-0302 [18] acpi_pci_irq_derive   : Unable to derive IRQ for device 00:03.0 
< PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 00:03.0 
< host/usb-ohci.c: USB OHCI at membase 0xe081a000, IRQ 9 
--- 
> host/usb-ohci.c: USB OHCI at membase 0xe081a000, IRQ 20 
 
This should be a _good_ thing;-) 
 
dmidecode shows that this is a 
Award Software, Inc. 
ASUS P4S8X ACPI BIOS Revision 1004 
 
http://www.asus.com.tw/mb/socket478/p4s8x/overview.htm 
says it has an SiS 648 chip-set. 
 
http://www.asus.com.tw/support/download/item.aspx?ModelName=P4S8X&Type=All 
says that its 10/4/2002 BIOS 1004 is the latest. 
 
Can you attach the output from lspci -vv (run under any version) so we 
can verify that device 00:03.0 is your USB and the exact chip-set id? 
 
Please boot -pre5 or later with acpi=off and verify that USB works, and 
attach the output of /proc/interrupts.  I expect we will not see USB on IRQ 20, 
which I think is our smoking gun. 
 
Thanks. 
 
Comment 18 Len Brown 2003-10-10 00:23:20 UTC
Looking at the DSDT... 
            Name (APIC, Package (0x25) 
            { 
		... 
                Package (0x04) 
                { 
                    0x0003FFFF, 
                    0x00, 
                    0x00, 
                    0x14 
                }, 
says that this puppy (Pin A of Device 3) should indeed be on IRQ20 
(assuming we have the right puppy;-) 
So the bug must be related to sharing the IRQ with the acpi interrupt. 
 
We can't verify by moving the controller to another slot to pick up an other interrupt, 
but it would be good to confirm that the other USB controllers work -- 
let me know if the devices work if you plug them into the other USB connectors. 
 
Thanks. 
 
Comment 19 David van Hoose 2003-10-10 05:23:03 UTC
Okay. I tried plugging the devices into the other connectors on my system.
Oddly enough both connectors on the USB controller expansion slot work.
However, only one connector works on each of the other two controllers.
Under pre4 and pre6 (w/ acpi=off) all 6 connectors work.
Under pre5 and pre6 (w/ acpi) only 4 connectors work.

Comment 22 Shaohua 2003-10-10 05:36:10 UTC
The problem is wrong irq makes USB work, but correct makes it failure.
another strange thing is acpi interrupt quantity in -pre4 is very high:
>20:       6927   IO-APIC-level  acpi
This vaule is rare unusally and less than 100, especially for a desktop.
Please attach '/proc/interrupts' with acpi=off but ioapic is on

>another strange thing is acpi interrupt quantity in -pre4 is very high:
>>20:       6927   IO-APIC-level  acpi
so 20 is right or wrong?  
20 is what is in DSDT?(yes!?), is DSDT right or wrong ?
well I think, we know what patches make USB fail, are Ext irq patch made by
Andrew de Q, the same person made a fall back patch that can be applied , to
work around this problem, and you can test it with 2.4.22-ac4.
Now the question, since finally some guy appears and say well, I can read ext
irq from DSDT is easy, and this appears in kernel (for me, with more than one
year in delay) , I ask is USB ready to work with ext irqs? or should we say no,
the problem is DSDT that have a bug here and DSDT should say the same irq of
what you have in Microsoft windows.
And what irqs you have under Microsoft Windows? isn't your machine windows XP

Comment 25 Len Brown 2003-10-10 21:33:06 UTC
Re: USB ports 
no telling which plug is wired to which controller, but the fact that 4/6 work is promising 
as it confirms that the IOAPIC USB interrupts > 16 not shared with acpi are working. 
 
Re: /proc/interrupts with IOAPIC, but without ACPI. 
Both the pre4 and -pre5 acpi=off results put the system in XT-PIC mode, not IOAPIC. 
It is likely that the IOAPIC on this box is accessible only in ACPI mode. 
Just to be sure, boot a CONFIG_SMP kernel (w/o ACPI) and see if /proc/interrupts 
has got your IOAPIC, or still XT-PIC. 
 
Re: windows 
yes, it would be interesting to know if windows enables the IOAPIC on this box, 
and if they put the USB interrupt with ACPI on IRQ20.  It appers that is the proper 
thing to do, but Linux doesn't get it right. 
 
Re: IRQ20 getting 1 interrupt 
If you boot the latest with ACPI enabled, does /proc/interrupts increment past 1 if you 
provoke ACPI events -- say by pressing the power button a few times?

Thanks, this confirms that 00:03.0 is indeed the controller of interest, and thus 
the AML does indeed say this controller should be on IRQ20. 
 
Re: what is wrong 
I think Luming is correct.  USB0 seems to have been working by accident in -pre4. 
Unclear how it got any interrupts down on IRQ9. 
 
But now that it is assigned to what appears to the correct IRQ, it starves for interrupts. 
As the other USB ports are working fine, surely this one got nailed because it is 
sharing an IRQ with acpi events -- a special case where we've had problems before. 
 
 
Comment 26 Shaohua 2003-10-10 22:34:19 UTC
If USB has the wrong IRQ, unusally interrupt storm occurs and report 
a 'interrupt nobody cared', as we have seen before. But in -pre4, we can't see 
such thing. weird! Currently some USB bugs occur because of USB driver's bug. 
See Bug 1240. try if it can resolve your problem. 
Comment 27 David van Hoose 2003-10-16 10:51:54 UTC
Here is a kicker for you all.
Linux 2.6.0-test7 through bk8 works perfectly on my system with ACPI and USB.
Not even a warning.
If you would like to see any outputs under 2.6.0, let me know.
Comment 28 Len Brown 2003-10-24 08:44:53 UTC
Does 2.6.0-test8 work as well as "2.6.0-test7 through bk8"? 
Does 2.4.23-pre8 work? 
can you attach the /proc/interrupts and dmesg for each?

Comment 36 Len Brown 2003-10-24 10:47:51 UTC
I'm delighted that 2.6 is working.  The quesion now is: 
 
1. why did 2.4.23-pre4 work with USB on IRQ9? 
    this has a echo of the weird linking between USB on IRQ20 
    and IRQ 9 seen on SiS 645 in bug #1352 
    but there USB and ACPI share IRQ9 in PIC mode, 
    and in APIC mode USB moves to 20 and ACPI stays at 9. 
 
2. 2.4.23 and 2.6 both have USB with ACPI on IRQ20, 
    so why does 2.6 work but 2.4 does not?

SIS I2C quirk foundin 2.6 but not in 2.4

One difference between 2.4 and 2.6 is the attached SIS quirk added for I2C.
Please back that quirk out of your 2.6 tree like so:

patch --dry-run -Rp1 </tmp/sis_quirk_26.diff

remove the code that depends on it from your .config:
CONFIG_I2C_SIS96X=n

and see if that makes 2.6 mis-behave like 2.4, or if USB still runs.

Also, please verify for me that you get ACPI events properly.
If you connect your USB mouse to one of the ports that isn't shared
with acpi, then you should be able to trigger ACPI interrupts by
pressing your power button.  (if acpid is enabled, it may shut down your
system,
so you may want to disable that first), and observering the
/proc/interrupts row for acpi incrementing for each button press.

thanks, -Len

totally untested, but in case removing the SIS quirk from 2.6 causes failure,
here is a patch to add it to 2.4.23.

Comment 40 David van Hoose 2003-10-28 19:21:01 UTC
2.6 does not misbehave when I remove the SiS quirk.
My USB works and ACPI works.
Comment 41 Len Brown 2003-11-05 11:07:41 UTC
Re: why -pre4 worked and -pre5 stopped working 
 
This box has no MPS, so with ACPI off it runs in XT-PIC mode: 
>  9:        282          XT-PIC  ehci_hcd, usb-ohci, usb-ohci, usb-ohci, eth0 
 
This means that if left untouched, the PIRQ routers direct 
all the PCI devices to IRQ9 on the PIC. 
 
-pre4 ACPI failed to discover the IRQ for the USB controller of interest: 
 
> pci_irq-0302 [19] acpi_pci_irq_derive   : Unable to derive IRQ for device 00:03.0 
> PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 00:03.0 
 
this was because it didn't have the fix for bug #1165 which applies 
to systems which share the ACPI SCI with a PCI device. 
So -pre4 programmed the SCI properly, but left USB down on IRQ9: 
 
>  9:       4756    IO-APIC-edge  usb-ohci 
> 20:       6927   IO-APIC-level  acpi 
 
The interrupt pin of device 00:03.0, the USB controller, is connected 
both to the IRQ20 pin of the IOAPIC, and to the PIRQ router (LNKE) 
which has it directed to IRQ9 of the PIC, which is set to level sensitive. 
All bets are off in this situation, but apparently the failure didn't cause 
symptoms that a user would notice. 
 
 
 
 
Comment 42 David van Hoose 2003-11-05 13:03:53 UTC

IO-APIC (apicid-pin) 2-0, 2-16,...not connected. 
 NR Log Phy Mask Trig IRR Pol Stat Dest Deli Vect:

IRQ to pin mappings: 
IRQ9 -> 0:9-> 0:20 
 
2.6.0-test8: 
IO-APIC (apicid-pin) 2-0, 2-9, 2-16...not connected.

IRQ9 -> 0:20 
 
So 2.4 has IRQ9 enabled when 2.6 does not, 
and it has pin 20 mapped to it. 
 
The other difference is 2.6 has sis_apic_bug -- though 
i'm not sure if that code is running on this box.

patch to print IOAPIC after ACPI has programmed it 2.6 only

Please apply this patch to the working 2.6 and failing 2.4 kernels
and attach the resulting dmesg.

thanks,

shoot, looks like that patch applied to 2.6 but mis-applied to 2.4. 
Please apply the patch below to 2.4.23-pre9 and attach the dmesg. 
(no need to run further tests on -pre4, its evil ways are well known;-)

2.4.23 patch to mpparse.c mp_override_legacy_irq()

Please apply this patch to 2.4.23 and attach the dmesg.
It will cause the over-ride entry for pin20 to replace the entry for
pin9 on IRQ9, rather than creating an additional entry for IRQ9.

This fix was originally made to 2.6 by Unisys for ES7000 support,
and was integrated into 2.6 by akpm on June 14th.

thanks,

The patch to override legacy irq() worked.
All 6 USB ports work perfectly.

Comment 54 Len Brown 2003-11-12 17:02:47 UTC
Thinking about the root cause of this bug... 
 
It is not a coincidence that IRQ20 in the failure case always 
registers 1 interrupt, and never any more.  This must mean 
that the IO-APIC has the interrupt set in level triggered mode, 
and is waiting for an EOI message to clear its Remote IIR. 
 
But the Local APIC must have the interrupt set for 
level triggered mode, so its EOI never sends the appropriate 
message to the IOAPIC, and thus no new interrupts on 
that pin are seen.
