But, what I haven't yet done is modify the general PowerPC PCI functions (like pci_consistent_alloc()) to use these lower level functions on the MPC8xx or the IBM4xx. If you want to hack those PCI functions in your local sources, go ahead, as the plan is to make those work. I just have to test against other platforms to ensure I didn't break something, which is much more time consuming that just making them work for a specific test environment. -- Dan ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
