Martyn,

Do you know why ge_imp3a.c has 0x9000 as the 'primary' PCIe bus on the board?

Hi Kumar,

Sorry, missed your mail.

At a quick guess it's because that's the interface that is used for the
on-board PCI devices.

What PCI devices are on-board?

Does the board have any PCIe-ISA bridges?

[ if you can generate an lspci dump, that might answer some of these =
questions ]

thanks

Just SATA.

No, though SERDES Port 1 is connected to a PCie-PCI non-transparent bridge to
a PCI backplane.

Sorry, I don't have easy access to a board at the moment.
