Hello, thanks for responding. The first take at this used your idea of mapping the PCI-E ranges above the 4G boundary. We have a localbus bridge device on the PCI-E bus that only supports 32-bit MMIO, but I believe we could satisfactorily work around that problem using the ATMU registers. However, one question that I had that I wasn't able to verify to my satisfaction was whether I could ioremap a 36-bit physical address when building for ppc32, as the PCI-E devices have memory ranges that need to be accessible from userspace. If that is possible, then this may be the way to go, although it would still be nice not to lose the 128 meg for the localbus & CCSR region.
