68K/PPC context switching?

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone knows how context switching is performed between the 68k and PPC chips on "Classic" Amiga expansion boards?
(CyberstormPPC etc.)

I'm thinking of low-level hardware, not library calls.

Presumably it is done through a soft-switch in the card's auto-config space, or have I got it all wrong entirely?

Cheers,
Red

Ignore this request.

Figured it all out from the PowerUp docs/include files.
