During remove & rescan cycle, PCI subsystem will recalculate and adjust
the bridge window sizing that was initially done by "BIOS". The size
calculation is based on the required alignment of the largest resource
among the downstream resources as per pbus_size_mem() (unimportant or
zero parameters marked with "..."):
min_align = calculate_mem_align(aligns, max_order);
size0 = calculate_memsize(size, ..., min_align);
and then in calculate_memsize():
size = ALIGN(max(size, ...) + ..., align);
If the original bridge window sizing tried to conserve space, this will
lead to massive increase of the required bridge window size when the
downstream has a large disparity in BAR sizes. E.g., with 16MiB and
16GiB BARs this results in 32GiB bridge window size even if 16MiB BAR
does not require gigabytes of space to fit.
When doing remove & rescan for a bus that contains such a PCI device, a
larger bridge window is suddenly required on rescan but when there is a
bridge window upstream that is already assigned based on the original
size, it cannot be enlarged to the new requirement. This causes the
allocation of the bridge window to fail (0x600000000 > 0x400ffffff):

This is a major surprise for users who are suddenly left with a PCIe
device that was working fine with the original bridge window sizing.
Even if the already assigned bridge window could be enlarged by
reallocation in some cases (something the current code does not attempt
to do), it is not possible in general case and the large amount of
wasted space at the tail of the bridge window may lead to other
resource exhaustion problems on Root Complex level (think of multiple
PCIe cards with VFs and BAR size disparity in a single system).
PCI specifications only expect natural alignment for BARs (PCI Express
Base Specification, rev. 6.1 sect. 7.5.1.2.1) and minimum of 1MiB
alignment for the bridge window (PCI Express Base Specification,
rev 6.1 sect. 7.5.1.3). The current bridge window tail alignment rule
was introduced in the commit 5d0a8965aea9 ("[PATCH] 2.5.14: New PCI
allocation code (alpha, arm, parisc) [2/2]") that only states:
"pbus_size_mem: core stuff; tested with randomly generated sets of
resources". It does not explain the motivation for the extra tail space
allocated that is not truly needed by the downstream resources. As
such, it is far from clear if it ever has been required by any HW.
To prevent PCIe cards with BAR size disparity from becoming unusable
after remove & rescan cycle, attempt to do a truly minimal allocation
for memory resources if needed. First check if the normally calculated
bridge window will not fit into an already assigned upstream resource.
In such case, try with relaxed bridge window tail sizing rules instead
where no extra tail space is requested beyond what the downstream
resources require. Only enforce the alignment requirement of the bridge
window itself (normally 1MiB).
With this patch, the resources are successfully allocated:

During our internal review, Andy Shevchenko noted that the check for
ioport_resource & iomem_resource might not be needed. I've left them
into pbus_upstream_assigned_limit() because I couldn't prove myself
they're unnecessary and find_bus_resource_of_type() also does the
same check. If the checks are not needed in
pbus_upstream_assigned_limit() they should not be required in
find_bus_resource_of_type() either.
