    hello every one :) good day!
    i have list the 3 puzzle coming to me in my recent coding reading of freebsd

    ///////////////
    pci bridge dynamic resize
    /////////////
    it seems that the device arch of freebsd is similar to what is revealed in
    window OS. i have read the pcie hotplug tps of windows longhorn ,it is said
    that with some hardware mechanisms the pci bridge driver can do global pci
    resource window reconfiguration.so good to the hotplugin pci device for it
    avoid prelocating resource for the device .
    i wonder ,if the mem /io/irq reconfiguration possible under freebsd .:)

    //////////////
     is bus_data_generation
    /////////
    what idoes bus_data_generation for, is it the generation count for the
    device manager tree?
    void
    bus_data_generation_update(void)
    {
    bus_data_generation++;
    }

    //////////////
    pci_write_config vs pci_write_config_method
    //////////////
    under the source code /dev/pci .there are functions name pci_write_config (
    pcivar.h) and pci_write_config_method(pci.c)
    they both call the parent method ,though the content is different ,but does
    that a liitle overlap whit each other?
