Sort-of. On some systems it actually goes through PCI and there's a PCI->ISA bridge that uses substractive decoding to the legacy devices. > So, how about this becomes: > > Hisilicon Hip06 SoCs implement a Low Pin Count (LPC) controller, which > provides access to some legacy ISA devices. > > I believe that we could theoretically have multiple independent LPC/ISA > busses, as is possible with PCI on !x86 systems.

What in that code prevents that today ?
