Here's a summary of the current state of the Linux PCI subsystem, as of
2.6.23-rc8.
If the information in here is incorrect, or anyone knows of any
outstanding issues not listed here, please let me know.
List of outstanding regressions from 2.6.22:
- none known.
List of outstanding regressions from older kernel versions:
- none known.
What about http://marc.info/?l=linux-pci&m=119072400008538&w=2 ?
That's not a regression, right? Tt's probably never worked for that
kind of box :)
I think the pci bus patches that are pending from Jeff Garzik should fix
up these issues. They are in one of his trees, and in the -mm release,
if you are able to test those.
jgarzik/misc-2.6.git#pciseg has my only outstanding PCI stuff, which is a
small x86[-64] PCI domain support patch. Mostly unrelated to the thread at
hand, alas, even though it was touching that area.
I need to a few changes required by Andi, who made several good points,
then the PCI domains thing should be ready for upstream. I don't care much
who merges it, you, Andi or me.
I'll take it, as I guess it should go through me, Andi is going to have
enough merge issues for 2.6.24 :)
I'll add them to my tree later today.
Please don't pull 'pciseg' just yet... it needs the fixes Andi pointed
out, namely, it should be turned on by default in x86 / x86-64 platform
Kconfig, and have a boot-time method of disabling it.
