Hi folks...
I have added support for using BWX (Byte/Word eXtentions) for PCI config
space and PCI i/o and mem space on the ALCOR2 (21172) and Pyxis (21174)
core logic chipsets. Affected systems:
- AlphaStation 500 (ALCOR2)
- AlphaPC 164LX (Pyxis)
- AlphaPC 164SX (Pyxis)
- Digital Personal Workstation (Pyxis) - not yet in the tree
This should speed up access of bus devices somewhat, and may be necessary
for some systems (e.g. the Digital Personal Workstation) to function
properly.
I had been running w/ these changes for some time on my AlphaStation 500
when I wrote the code last year (!), but didn't commit it because of a
bug. I found and fixed the bug, and now everything is working Nicely
on my system:

Note that if you have problems, you may disable the use of BWX by patching
the kernel variable `cia_use_bwx' to 0, or by putting CIA_USE_BWX=0 in
your kernel config, and rebuilding cia.o.
That said, I don't anticipate any problems... I ran with this code for
quite some time before I noticed the bug (by fixing a bug in the de driver :-),
and fixed it today (forgot to actually do the store in cia_bwx_mem_write_4()).
Ciao.
