SGI machines support random PCI cards, right? If so, you
cannot presume
I/O devices have no 32-bit limits.
No, SGI machines don't support random PCI cards. The lowest
possible physical address in an Altix is 192GB. Cards that
can only DMA to addresses below 4G aren't going to be very
useful, are they?
Do the boxes have IOMMUs?
