# NAME

# SYNOPSIS

mppb* at zbus0
pci* at mppb?

# DESCRIPTION

The mppb driver provides support for the PCI bus present on Prometheus Zorro III to PCI bridge card.

# HARDWARE

The mppb driver supports the following hardware:

PROMETHEUS
  Matay Prometheus. Manufacturer 44359, product 1.

# SEE ALSO

pci(4)

# HISTORY

The mppb device first appeared in NetBSD 6.0.

# AUTHORS

The mppb driver was written by Radoslaw Kujawa <radoslaw.kujawa@gmail.com>.

# BUGS

The hardware does not support DMA to host memory.

The Prometheus does not support repeating of PCI transactions, instead if the PCI card demands a retry of transaction, it returns value 0xFFFFFFFF. This is currently not handled by the mppb driver and will confuse some PCI card drivers.
