[Bug 1571798] Re: Broadwell ECRC Support missing in Ubuntu
I built the next test kernel, up to the following commit:
867f667fb9c6734e06cc24e96fc7f06a7e772084
The test kernel can be downloaded from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1571798
Can you test that kernel and report back if it has the bug or not? I
will build the next test kernel based on your test results.
Thanks in advance

Bug description:
Here is the problem statement from the Dell team:
When booting into Ubuntu 14.04.4 with a Broadwell CPU and an Intel
Quick Assist Card, the memory location that corresponds to ECRC is set
to 0x01e0, when the BIOS is setting this location 0x00a0 pre-OS boot.
This causes the card to not function unless we implement the following
workaround using setpci.
“setpci –s AA:BB.C 160.w=0”, where AA:BB.C is the PCI Root Path for
the Intel Quick Assit Card.
We’ve verified the memory location is correct when booting to other
OSes, such as RHEL 7.2 and Windows Server 2012 R2.
If there is any information you can give as to why this may be
occurring in Ubuntu or where we may start to debug when the memory is
changed, we would appreciate it.
