This should probably be:

if (upper_32_bits(size) || epc_features->bar[bar].only_64bit)
	epf_bar[bar].flags |= PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_MEM_TYPE_64;
else
	epf_bar[bar].flags |= PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_MEM_TYPE_32;

if (epf_bar[bar].flags & PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_MEM_TYPE_64)
	epf_bar[bar].flags |= PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_MEM_PREFETCH;

so that we set PREFETCH even for a EPF driver that had PCI_BASE_ADDRESS_MEM_TYPE_64
set in flags even before calling pci_epf_alloc_space. Will fix in V2.




I also found a bug in the existing code.
If pci_epf_alloc_space() allocated a 64-bit BAR because of bits in size,
then the increment in pci_epf_test_alloc_space() was incorrect.
(I guess no one uses BARs > 4GB).

Will send a separate fix with the above.


Kind regards,
