Please consider the following patch for submission. This patch contains the
implementation of the I/O Slot DLPAR Drivers for PPC64 RISC Platform
Architecture. This module depends on the RPA PCI Hotplug Module in the
previous post. The patch is made against kernel version 2.6.3-rc2.
The Dynamic Logical Partitioning Module allows the runtime movement of I/O
Slots between logical partitions. An administrator can logically add/remove
PCI Buses to/from a PPC64 partition at runtime. These operations are initiated
using interface files located at:
/sys/bus/pci/pci_hotplug_slots/control/
Development contact for this module is John Rose (johnrose@austin.ibm.com).
