To be clear, the issue is a bridge implementing a 64-bit, prefetchable BAR at config offset 0x10 & 0x14, not the limit/base registers that define the bridge windows for prefetchable and non-prefetchable downstream resources. > > In any case, it's my understanding that our bridge drivers don't generally make use > > of bridge BARs.

Correct, and the issue is that the bridge at 5e:00.0 _consumes_ a portion of the window we need to resize at the root port. Root port: Prefetchable memory behind bridge: 000000bfe0000000-000000bff07fffff [size=264M] Upstream switch port: Region 0: Memory at b010000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) Prefetchable memory behind bridge: 000000bfe0000000-000000bfefffffff [size=256M] It's that Region 0 resource that prevents resizing. > > The patch below works for me, allowing the new resourceN_resize sysfs > > attribute to resize the root port window within the provided bus > > window.

Resource resizing in pci-sysfs is largely modeled after the amdgpu code, but I don't see any special provisions for handling conflicting resources consumed on intermediate devices. The driver attached to the upstream switch port is pcieport and removing it doesn't resolve the problem. The necessary resource on the root port still reports a child. Is amdgppu resizing known to work in cases where the GPU is downstream of a PCIe switch that consumes resources of the same type and the root port aperture needs to be resized? I suspect it does not. Thanks, Alex
