Hello Richard,

did you try my suggested patch above?


If you look at dma-ranges:
https://devicetree-specification.readthedocs.io/en/latest/chapter2-devicetree-basics.html#dma-ranges

"dma-ranges" property should be used on a bus device node
(such as PCI host bridges).

It does not seem correct to add this property (describing the DMA limit
of the AHCI controller, a PCI endpoint) on the PCI host bridge/controller.

This property belongs to the AHCI controller, not the upstream PCI
host bridge/controller.

AHCI has a specific register to describe if the hardware can support
64-bit DMA addresses or not, so if my suggested patch works for you,
it seems like a more elegant solution (which also avoids having to
abuse device tree properties).


Kind regards,
Niklas
