To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Message-id: <200602090106.10411.jringle@vertical.com> Organization: Vertical MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-transfer-encoding: 8BIT Content-disposition: inline User-Agent: KMail/1.9.1 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 721 Lines: 17 Hello, I am working on a new board that will have Linux running on an xscale processor. This board will be a PCI Option device. I currently have a IXDP465 eval board which has a PCI Option connector that I will use for prototyping. >From what I can tell so far, Linux wants to scan the PCI bus for devices as if it is the PCI host. Is there any provision in Linux so that it can take on the role of a PCI option rather than a PCI host? Jon PS.
