Hi.
In short, I have a GPU for which lspci reveals:
Capabilities: [bb0 v1] Physical Resizable BAR
BAR 0: current size: 16MB, supported: 16MB
BAR 1: current size: 128MB, supported: 64MB 128MB 256MB 512MB
1GB 2GB 4GB 8GB 16GB 32GB
BAR 3: current size: 32MB, supported: 32MB
In dmesg I see:
[ 0.517191] pci 0000:08:00.0: BAR 1 [mem 0x6000000000-0x600fffffff
64bit pref]: assigned
[ 0.517238] pci 0000:08:00.0: BAR 3 [mem 0x6010000000-0x6011ffffff
64bit pref]: assigned
[ 0.517261] pci 0000:08:00.0: BAR 0 [mem 0xa4000000-0xa4ffffff]: assigned
I take it the location of BAR 3 right after BAR 1 explains why I get:
p53 # echo 9 > resource1_resize
-bash: echo: write error: No space left on device
Shrinking it and increasing it to the orginal size works.
Is there anything I can do with current kernel functionality to reserve
memory address space for the full-fat BAR 1? Or relocate it?
If not, is this something which *can* be worked around in the kernel?
And if so, does it belong with the PCI subsystem? Or the devicedriver
for the device in question?
Is there a good ELI13 resource explaining how resizable BAR works in Linux?
My current kernel command-line contains: pci=assign-busses,realloc
My GPU is attached via TB3 to a system for which resizable BAR is and
will remain a foreign concept in the BIOS.
dmesg excerpt below reflects resizing the BAR to 128MB and then back to
256MB.

Unsure what else from dmesg or kernel config is relevant here. Can post
