I believe that cPCI is the same as normal PCI from the software point of view.
However, cPCI has different connectors.
I'm currently working on an ARM development board which can be used either
as a ATX motherboard with PCI slots, or plugged into a cPCI backplane, and
the only thing between the two is a standard DEC PCI to PCI bridge.
Disclaimer: I haven't done any in-depth investigations yet, so I could be
talking complete and utter nonsense here.
