For us today, MMCONFIG isn't always used, it's used on a per device basis already; except that the per-device is both defined by the bios and our quirks.... (the mmconfig code already falls back to conf1 cycles in various cases) So I'm not entirely buying your argument. IN fact I'm not buying your "mixed is not tested at all" argument; while the statement may be true, it's not different than it is from Linux today... which is mixed. Just differently mixed I suppose. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
