Hi Arnd, Jason, First of all, thanks for the really helpful feedback. I'll take it on-board for v2.

Right, so that's what I've currently been relying on.

Again, I'd rather cross that bridge (no pun intended) when we decide we want legacy VGA. > * If you have two PCI host bridges and each of them comes with > its own I/O space range starting between 0x0-0xffff, you have > to map one of them into logical I/O space address 0x10000-0x1ffff > and set io_offset = 0x10000 for that bus. Right, this sounds a lot more plausible from the perspective of a generic driver. Since the current code only allows exactly one I/O space region, we avoid the issue but I can remove that restriction (that I mentioned earlier) and offset the region based on the bridge. > > > This shows once more that the range parser code is suboptimal.

Okey doke, is anybody working on that? (I see the follow up from Jason, but it's not clear whether that's going to be merged).
