RE: [patch 26/30] Support for Marvell 7042 Chip

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have tested with generic 2.6.20.2 on on x86 (XEON)
platform and a similiar (but not exactly same) 2.6.20.x 
(git tree from Freescale) for my target CPU: MPC8548E

Its exactly the same SATA chip - the only difference
between 7042 & 6042 is the PCI bridge interface.

In the case of 6042 - its a PCI to PCI Bridge
In the case of 7042 - its a PCI to PCI Express Bridge

I do not believe there is any other difference - except
the physical bus interface.

I should have 'said' this in the patch request...

applied, although it's questionable whether this works at all on PCI-Express
