Hi,

I have a request from a client to support PCIe hot plugging on an PowerPC Linux platform.

I have had a general look into how Linux supports PCIe hot plugging, i.e. pciehp utilising ACPI firmware.

I'm not too familiar with the PowerPC platform and I'm not sure if ACPI is supported at all on the PowerPC platforms?

Does anyone know if PCIe hot plug support is available in PowerPC Linux?

Best regards, Mark.
