hi,all

  I am reading code about pci, and I can't understand some lines in
pci_check_direct(), in arch/i386/kernel/pci-pc.c

well, I wonder why "outb (0x01, 0xCFB);" if check configuration type 1 ? and 
why
"outb (0x00, 0xCFB);" if check configuration type 2?

please help me,thanks a lot

406 static struct pci_ops * __devinit pci_check_direct(void)
407 {
408         unsigned int tmp;
409         unsigned long flags;

415          */

417                 outb (0x01, 0xCFB);
418                 tmp = inl (0xCF8);
419                 outl (0x80000000, 0xCF8);
