You can be as dump as you want with PCI, but not that much. :-)
Your point is well taken.
Btw, unlike the person, that proposed it, that will be able to test peer-to-peer unability only, my current machine will allow to test peer-to-peer ability only between 2 different PCI BUSes. :-)
For now, my intention is to encapsulate the right interface as seen from my brain device in macros and forget about it until a new interface will be provided. I will first implement it on SYM-2 and backport changes to sym53c8xx later. And since I need the new major driver version to be tested on non-Intel platforms, this will make full synergy for the testings. :-)
Ok, meanwhile I will try to code up the generic interface. It will work like this: 1) I will code up something I know each port can implement 2) I will show it to those here and everyone can tell me if they can make use of it at all :-)
