I apologize for the late reply. I was on vacation.

ECC disabled means the sof/jic that you're loading has ECC disabled, 
correct?

I haven't seen this. I'd expect both ECC enabled and disabled to fail 
with the dumps you have below since they'd both need to use the regmap 
functions.

Yes, this does look like it is using the register accesses instead of 
the SMC call. Line 2206 sets the SMC call after determining from the 
if() statement if it is a Stratix10 or Arria10 and from below it seems 
to take the Arria10 path.

The altr_check_ecc_deps() call is checking whether ECC is enabled so the 
probe should fail.

I suspect the device tree. Can you verify the following node is in your 
device tree?

	sdramedac {
		compatible = "altr,sdram-edac-s10";
		altr,sdr-syscon = <&sdr>;
		interrupts = <16 4>;
	};

I'll keep looking into this as well.
