Hi Saheed,

Which PCI specification are you talking about here. In my "PCI Local
Bus Revision 2.3" specification (March 29, 2002), chapter 2 is about
Signal Definition and has nothing to do with the BIOS.

Hmmm. That seems to be a lot of changes to solve an essentially
theoretical problem (if a problem at all). I am not familiar enough
with the PCI subsystem to claim that it is fundamentally wrong, but
enough to say I'm skeptical.

PCI is a cross-architecture standard, and we can't possibly have the
return value of core functions such as pci_write_config_word follow
different conventions depending on the architecture, can we? Does
pci_write_config_word() currently return PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL on success
on x86 and 0 on success on other architectures? What about errors, do
we return positive, "PCIBIOS-specific" error codes on x86 and negative,
unix-like error codes on other architectures?

This leaves the code horribly aligned.
