I got MPC8315E working with PCI Express, using an Intel PRO/1000 GbE PCIe x1 card, using 2.6.24.3-rt3 with a lot of Freescale patches, as well as u-boot 1.2.0 forward patched to 1.3.0 by Freescale with some PCIe initialization work. So, basically the BSP 20080627. I would like these patches to be ported forward to mainline, and I can put some time in this, but I'ld rather first know what the Freescale status on the patches is? John, Stuart, could you please check if there is ongoing work in Freescale? I hate double efforts when I'm short on time :-) Thanks.
