The MPC106, codenamed "Grackle", is a memory controller and PCI host bridge. Its predecessor was the MPC105, codenamed "Bandit".
Unlike the CPU, the Grackle runs in little-endian mode in compliance with the PCI standard. This usually means that to get the result in the correct endian, the PowerPC must load and store byte-reversed inputs and results.
By default, Grackle operates on Address Map B.
CONFIG_ADDR can be found at any address in the range 0xFEC000000xFEDFFFFF, while CONFIG_DAT can be found at any address in the range 0xFEE000000xFEEFFFFF
PCI Config addresses work as follows:
bus << 16 | device << 11 | function << 8 | offset
