PCI-Arbiter Extension



Hello Experts,

does anyone know a reasonable way how to extend the PCI-Arbiter,
which normally resides in the ChipSets north bridge ?

Most ChipSets implement a set of 4 REQ#/GNT# pairs, which should be
sufficient in normal desktop PC systems. But if for any reason I have
to connect more than those 4 busmaster capable devices to the bus,
how can the built-in arbiter be extended in an easy way ?

Any comments appreciated
Thanks,
