Is there any 4xx work that I could help with? Is A 44x thing that would be nice is to abstract the PCI-X bridge support into a common call (or calls) so it can be configured into a variety of windowing modes...like alternative monarch memory maps or any non-monarch configurations. Part of this would work would require that fixup_bigphys_addr() be made aware of these window changes. In addition it would be nice to have a helper function that sets the same values as the current hardcoded monarch configuration via the new abstracted interface since that is a common configuration. Sorry, but you asked. :) > linuxppc-2.5 the right tree to use? Yes, nothing 44x-related should be going in without a 2.5 patch. I've invested considerable time making sure that it was usable by other developers on 44x...hopefully that still the case after two weeks of vacation.
