hardfail vs softfail is a chipset, not arch issue.
Intel IA32/IA64 chipsets will softfail on MMIO reads and IO port
access that master abort (timeout).
HP chipsets (ZX1/SX1000) will hardfail - it's one of the differences
I point out in the "Porting drivers to ZX1" OLS2002 paper I wrote.
Sounds like SGI chipsets behave the same way.
ISTR only config space accesses are always required to softfail
on master aborts. I don't recall if IO Port space is required to as
well and it looks like this issue is outside the scope of PCI spec.
