Universal PCI driver system: OpenPCI 10.3
Thomas 'Thor' Richter's universal PCI driver system “OpenPCI” supports all known PCI solutions for the Amiga without recourse to the software of the respective manufacturer. The current version 10.3 eliminates problems when working with PCI bridges:
- Bridge configuration was refactored again. Bridge
and parent device are now passed already into the
constructor of a PCI device, and not only when it
is added.
- Fixed a trashed register in the Mediator board
scan.
- The Mediator scan did not pass the parent device
correctly into the device creator, thus giving
devices behind bridges wrong bus IDs.
- For some strange reason, the Mediator does not
seem to decode the address bits for selecting a
device behind a PCI bridge correctly; it seems
to ignore them. Therefore, the Mediator currently
supports only a single device behind a bridge.
- Some bridges take apparently several milliseconds
to accept a configuration. Now the library inserts
a 50ms delay after having installed the target
busses after setting up a PCI bridge.
- The time delay function was broken and passed in
the wrong command to the timer.device.
