Rockpro64 with PCI FC Card - Not booting (Sometimes) - MSteam - 10-25-2020
Hi.
So i have FibreChannel PCIe x8 card, and i am trying to make it work with my RP64.
Most distros woun't boot with this card inserted, but I have found that Armbian 4.4.192 and MrFixit's debian build 4.4.180 will sometimes boot, and detect the card!
But it happens 1 time out of 6, and i have no idea why. Also I can't understand why this distros can run this card, and others just hang.
Anyway here is two bootlogs: succesful and the one that fails to boot.
If somone knows what is going on - please look at this logs.
Sucsess:

Edit!
I've find out that boot fail happening only if PCI addressees getting assigned by cpu0, cpu1, cpu2, cpu3!
If I get lucky (or disable cpus 0-3) and PCI address assigned by cpu4 or cpu5 - it will boot every time!
But how do i assign PCI address only by some specific cpu?
