It's fine with me. I guess it might make a difference for ACPI suspend/resume support.

I don't think they should be a problem, but you can set any value you'd like once we get your driver loading. > Actually what is the best way to get pciexp_porta.c to be included and > replace the > default PCI functions in src\devices ?

OK. I think we're going to get there. It looks like your driver doesn't get registered for the device because the PCI IDs don't match. >From your boot log: PCI: 00:02.0 subordinate bus PCI Express PCI: 00:02.0 [8086/5024] enabled PCI: 00:03.0 subordinate bus PCI Express PCI: 00:03.0 [8086/5025] enabled Those IDs match the EP80579 defines in /src/include/device/pci_ids.h, but there is no driver defined which uses that ID. Copy the drivers in /src/northbridge/intel/i3100/pciexp_porta.c, rename them, and have them use the correct PCI IDs. That should make your functions get called.
