Hello all:

I would like to understand if there is a way to program the PCI interrupt pin register of MPC8540. I did look for this in the datasheet, but couldn't find any positive answer.

Currently, I am working in a set-up where MPC8540 is an agent, plugged into the PC host. 
I couldn't get an IRQ for the card when plugged in some PCI slots, whereas in one of the slots I do see a non-zero value.

It would be great if you could help me understand the issue.

I am sorry if the question is inapporpriate in the group. I am desperate to solve the issue.

Thanks for any help.
J.Joseph

I understand that, thus I was asking what exact problem you were  
seeing to try and help.

I know what the code does, I wrote it :)
