Sorry for any lack of clarity, mainly it's due to me not understanding enough about pci to know what to ask for help on. Reading/decoding the hardware design spec section for the fpga says that it does not support pci plug & play and the pci interface in the fpga code does not have a configuration register set, it just details what IDSEL line is allocated and the fact that it is interfaced to the MPC107 pci bus both as a slave & master. There are no mention of BAR registers. Is it possible to set up a linuxppc pci interface to the fpga pci interface and other peripherals that do have configuration register sets (a tdm controller & an ethernet controller), to be at specific addresses in pci space, i.e. fpga at 0xc0000000, tdm at 0xd0000000 and ethernet at 0xe0000000 rather than have the interfaces probed during initialisation and the ioaddr etc handed out to the relevant drivers ? I know that we need to write a couple of drivers anyway but the ethernet is a pcnet32 controller. There, I have again probably unclarified what I am trying to find out ! > Is it possible to force the start address for the devices to be at specific > addresses as determined by the hardware map using the existing pci > controller code ?
