"IXP4xx Options"


 * Option: IXP4XX_INDIRECT_PCI
 * Kernel Versions: 2.6.15.6 ...
 * (on/off) Use indirect PCI memory access
 * IXP4xx provides two methods of accessing PCI memory space:
 * 1) A direct mapped window from 0x48000000 to 0x4bffffff (64MB).           To access PCI via this space, we simply ioremap the BAR            into the kernel and we can use the standard read[bwl]/write[bwl]            macros. This is the preferred method due to speed but it            limits the system to just 64MB of PCI memory. This can be             problamatic if using video cards and other memory-heavy devices.                  2) If > 64MB of memory space is required, the IXP4xx can be     configured to use indirect registers to access PCI This allows     for up to 128MB (0x48000000 to 0x4fffffff) of memory on the bus.     The disadvantadge of this is that every PCI access requires     three local register accesses plus a spinlock, but in some     cases the performance hit is acceptable. In addition, you cannot     mmap PCI devices in this case due to the indirect nature    of the PCI window.
 * By default, the direct method is used. Choose this option if you need to use the indirect method instead. If you don't know what you need, leave this option unselected.
