Can SIV generate a big dump of similar output for all devices at once? Then I could avoid bugging you for "look at this, look at that," etc :-) I'm particularly interested in the bridges (the PCIe root ports, in this case). I think Windows moved the 00:01.0 prefetchable aperture. We know from the Linux dmesg that the 00:01.0 bridge was initially configured like this: pci 0000:00:01.0: PCI bridge to [bus 01-01] pci 0000:00:01.0: bridge window [io 0x7000-0x9fff] pci 0000:00:01.0: bridge window [mem 0xfdd00000-0xfddfffff] pci 0000:00:01.0: bridge window [mem 0xbdf00000-0xddefffff 64bit pref] Based on https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16009#c11, I think Windows moved the prefetchable aperture: Plage mémoire: 00000000FDD00000 - 00000000FDDFFFFF Plage mémoire: 00000000C0000000 - 00000000DFFFFFFF <== moved Plage d'E/S: 7000 - 9FFF Note that the aperture size is still 0x20000000. Since this new [mem 0xc0000000-0xdfffffff] aperture would conflict with this 00:1c.4 aperture: pci 0000:00:1c.4: bridge window [mem 0xddf00000-0xdfefffff 64bit pref] I think it's likely that Windows moved the 1c.4 aperture as well (or maybe even disabled it, since it leads to buses 06-07, and there are no devices on those buses).
