i8259 is an ISA device (or at least, depends on the ISA infrastructure to
register its ioport); and the ISA bus is supplied by piix4.  Later patches
make this dependency explicit.

Move the i8259 initialization until after the ISA bus is created; and supply
a new qemu_irq to PCI initialization, since the i8259 isn't ready yet.  Later
wire the new qemu_irq to the i8259.

Part of batch 7, but nasty, so sending it by itself.

Not sure this is the right approach - the i8259 is not really an ISA device.
However, disentangling it from ISA is hard.

Can this please be reviewed?  It's in the front of the memory queue logjam.

With or without this patch, the mips and mipsel test images on qemu.org
produce no output at all, on x64 host.

I just tested the mipsel test image on i386 and x64 hosts with the
same result. Adding -d in_asm shows that the linux kernel is started,
but runs in a loop at some point (timer initialization?). Timer interrupts
are still served (attach cross gdb to running emulation).

Could you already bisect this problem? I did not run these tests for
years.

My standard mips tests use debian mips kernels and show no problems.

AFAICT this problem predates the memory API.  I'm looking more for 
criticism on the approach.

Is there any point in the IF?  I realize that there's an ordering
problem that requires the use of the memory indirection in order
to be able to provide *some* opaque value at the proper time, but
AFAICT the ->i8259 value will *always* be non-null at the point
this function is called.  Am I wrong here?

Otherwise the approach looks correct.

The pci bridge may toggle the irq line as part of its initialization.

Yeah, but it would have been even more correct to make i8259 not an isa 
device.  Something for later on.

Ah.  Right.

Yeah, there's a lot of that going around.  In any case:

Hi, i think the images on the wiki are meant to run on a -M mips board.
Maybe the scripts predate a change to Malta as default board, don't know.

The patch looks OK to me to, but you could maybe put a comment in the code
to explain the indirection.

That's a very good hint. Yes, with -M mips it works. See
commit 63742cf887a161aba6cbe53a60161aa47db9a4bb
(Sat Jul 5 21:51:47 2008 +0000):
     Change MIPS machine default to Malta.

Test configurations:

1. Debian lenny, qemu-system-mipsel (32 bit little endian), MIPS Malta
2. Debian lenny, qemu-system-mips64 (64 bit big endian), MIPS Malta

Both work on a i386 linux host with the patch applied.

ISA is a train wreck today so we just have to do what we need to for now until 
it can be properly fixed.
