I had to collect a few ideas that I hope could be useful to you. First let me state that we didn't reach a completely clean solution to the PCI rescan issue yet. I have been mainly experimenting on the topic. Let me share my results... I had reasonably good result in getting "basic" rescan to work: this can be done at least with two methods: 1. Exploting the fake-php module already included in vanilla kernels (see drivers/pci/hotplug/fakephp.c). If you already have a probed device on the bus (I have the bridge to the CPU in my system) you can fire the rescan, after configuring your fpga, by "re-powering" the already available device. This is done by issuing from shell: echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/slot//power I found documentation about fakephp in mailinglist archives by deeply googlein' on the subject. NOTE: to enable the choice of this module in kconfig I had to add the following line to arch/ppc/Kconfig source "drivers/pci/hotplug/Kconfig" In my kernel (2.6.16) this is available in arch/powerpc but not in arch/ppc. Don't know if this is wanted or not. This step should not be required if you are using ARCH=powerpc instead. After enabling the choice the module is built ok with my kernel. After adding the line above you can find "Fake PCI hotplug driver" in kconfig under Bus Options / PCI Hotplug support. 2. Using the rescan procedure contributed by John Carlson. This is basically a kernel module that issue a PCI bus rescan when you load it. John helped me to port this module to 2.6.16 kernel API and I had more or less the same result using this and fakephp. I said these two methods would bring only "basic" rescan. The main point is that, as far as I can figure out, when bus scanning is done at boot, the ppc platform specific code will start a lot of quirks, irq fixups and resource remapping functions that will not be executed with the "manual" rescan done by the methods listed above. As a result, the config space for the pci device exposed by my fpga is sligtly different from that I have by rebooting after configuring the fpga. I suppose I can fix this later i.e. by using the setpci tool, but I don't have deep enough understanding of all those platform specific fixups and didn't get the same result of rebooting yet. Hope this quite confused thoughts may help you implementing your rescan. Please, keep me informed if you go further and get a cleaner solution.
