MemoryRegion's .old_portio mechanism requires workarounds for VGA on ppc, affecting among others the sPAPR PCI host bridge: http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commit;h=a3cfa18eb075c7ef78358ca1956fe7b01caa1724 Patches were posted and merged removing all .old_portio users but one: hw/ioport.c:portio_list_add_1(), used by portio_list_add() hw/isa-bus.c: portio_list_add(piolist, isabus->address_space_io, start); hw/qxl.c: portio_list_add(qxl_vga_port_list, pci_address_space_io(dev), 0x3b0); hw/vga.c: portio_list_add(vga_port_list, address_space_io, 0x3b0); hw/vga.c: portio_list_add(vbe_port_list, address_space_io, 0x1ce); Proposal by hpoussin was to move _list_add() code to ISADevice: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2013-01/msg00508.html Concerns: * PCI devices (VGA, QXL) register I/O ports as well => above patches add dependency on ISABus to machines -> "<benh> no mac ever had one" => PCIDevice shouldn't use ISA API with NULL ISADevice * Lack of avi: Who decides about memory API these days? armbru and agraf concluded that moving this into ISA is wrong. => I will drop the remaining ioport patches from above series. Suggestions on how to proceed with tackling the issue are welcome.
