Some GSC questions for HP

I have some questions about GSC.

1.
First, I'm working with Dave Kennedy on some code that'll walk through PDC to see all the devices on the box. I'm using PDC_IODC to walk through the devices. This requires that I pass it an hpa, which requires the bus id number. Right now we just walk through all the different busses to detect all the possible hardware.

How are bus IDs assigned, and how can we read that?

2.

On SMP PA 1.1 boxes, is there one GSC per CPU, or do all the CPUs share the same GSC?

3.

Does this concept of IOFlex work on non-GSC busses?

There's more coming.

I've built a static sash binary, it's at:

ftp://puffin.external.hp.com/pub/src/sash-2.1-hpux.tar.gz

or similiar.
