Subject: Posted Write onto a PCI end point device using Linux

Hi,

I am wondering whether it is possible to issue a posted write using the host 
computer's root complex towards an PCI express end point. I have done this using 

DMA in the past. However, if posted writes are possible that would save a lot of 

time and effort and would be quicker too.

Thanks,
Sanka
