Hi Greg!
I have no idea, it sounds like a PPC specific thing, not anything the PCI core does, right? So I'll add the ppc list to the cc: and ask if anyone there has any ideas?
Unfortunately, this is not PPC specific at all -- proc_attach_device() calls pci_proc_domain(bus), which is an arch-specific hook turning on the weird behavior I described. This hook can return non-zero even on x86 if there are buses outside domain 0. I think that the hook itself is correct, it only should trigger more consistent behavior of the generic code :) Would it be acceptable for the PPC folks to modify the code to add domain numbers to the device numbers in /proc/bus/pci/devices in the same format as the bus directories already have? If so, I will cook up a patch.
