If there are any devices that need it. IBS and PCI-E error handling do, but they're quite obscure. Also so far we don't know of any Fam 10h systems without MMCONFIG entries. Fam10h requires a new BIOS so it's reasonable to assume that the new BIOSes will do better. -Andi - 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/
