Warner, thank you. There is another peculiarity in my driver - it actually works with PCI configuration space of a HW device that is "owned" by other driver/bus, hostb actually. That is, I discover my device using pci_find_bsf(). But I think that there should be no problem as the registers that my driver uses should be of no interest to hostb. P.S. here is more information and link to the source code of my driver: http://docs.freebsd.org/cgi/getmsg.cgi?fetch=188288+0+current/freebsd-acpi -- Andriy Gapon _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
