PCI Resource Allocation.

I'm porting linux to a development platform with its VIA Southbridge connected to the secondary bus of a PCI bridge.

I've made the following quick hacks to get as far as I have but would now like to get some pointers as to the "right way".

1. The 4k IO space window for the bridge setup isn't enough for all the VIA IO memory space so I've bumped this up to 64K.

2. Because the VIA is on the "wrong side of the bridge" the isa_io_base has effectively been changed to 0xfebf0000.
Again I've made a quick hack to my platform setup.c to reflect this and the kernel now Oops's as per the included debug
capture.


If anyone could give me some pointers as to the right way to approach this I would be most obliged ? Is there any way to
   "pin" the VIA to a known address ( 0xfe000000 ) as adding devices onto my primary PCI bus will change the
isa_io_base. Also are there any known issues with PCI-PCI bridging and ppc etc ...
