Hello,

Thanks for the review.

Hmmm. Why not? Initially I stumbled upon the fact that powermac provides
such acces. Then I discovered that it provides configuration for memory windows
and other parts. (I needed it for my hack to add AGP bridge on U3 in Linux,
as I didn't want to change firmware).

I have to check. I think there is no guarantee, but standard accessors
are created exactly for 1, 2 and 4-byte access. And IIRC according
to PCI specs, offset should be len-aligned.

I'll add a comment. Basically these registers are unimplemented on u3/u4
bridges and at least some kinds of access to them cause system freeze.
I'll try to check what triggers what this night.

Yes, as offsets for this host bridge can be larger then 0xff. U3/U4 have
some HT configuration there, and I didn't want to impose a limit there.
If you are against this, I can change the order of calls.

This was a copy-paste of corresponding PowerMac code. Do you really want
for me to change this to global variable?


BTW: I see a lot of code duplication between PowerMac and Maple pci.c
files. Would you like a patch that merges those files to something
like arch/powerpc/sysdev/u3-pci.c? I can try merging them...
