Greetings ..

When doing a pci_read_config(dev, PCI_LATENCY_TIMER, 4) I get varying values on
different hardware configurations.

On Machine A the value is 32 and my device driver (using DMA) works fine.

On Machine B the value is 64 and my device driver doesn't work fine - there
seem
s to be these hickups in which the Chip writing to the PCI controller says it
ha
s finished transferring data but the write counters are still > 0.  My card
works closely with two network cards in the system.

Actually, I reckon I just need some pointers and things to remember when it
come
s to dealing with latency.  Any help?

Regards

eT
