Currently when we request an IO port region, the request is made directly
to the top resource, ioport_resource.

There is an issue here, in that drivers may request an IO port region even
if the IO port region has not even been mapped in (in pci_remap_iospace()).

This may lead to crashes when the PCI host has not enumerated prior to
accessing the IO port region, as below:

This issue was originally reported in [1].

This patch changes the functionality of request_region() to request a
region of the direct children of the top ioport_resource.

In this, if the IO port region has not been mapped for a particular IO
region, a suitable child region will not exist, and, as such,
request_region() calls will fail.

A side note: there are many drivers in the kernel which fail to even call
request_region() prior to IO port accesses, and they also need to be fixed
(to call request_region() as appropriate).


Hi Guenter,


Isn't that orthogonal to this problem ?

Yes, it is really. I only added the f71805f driver fixup to illustrate the problem in resource.c and the potential system crash, and how this patch would fix it.

I can't comment on the merits of the patch (though I am a bit concerned
about its impact and potential source of regressions),but I don't really
understand why it would only apply to request_region() and not to
request_muxed_region(). Is this an oversight or on purpose ?

It's an oversight, which would be fixed.

Thanks,
John
