Thanks, so here we go :

XP-GP with igb, works perfectly :

So the areas are well covered, though #11 seems larger than needed
but I seem to remember that they're all rounded up by 1 MB anyway,
then if so, that's OK.

Now with igb + myricom :

I noticed above that both igb ports share the same window #11. So I
tried to rmmod igb, remove both PCI devices, check mbus again (which
did not change), rescan PCI and modprobe igb again, and everything is
still operational with the same windows. I don't know if it is normal
that they're not unregistered when the device goes away (maybe there's
no refcount) ?

If we have to keep them forever, then maybe a further improvement
will consist in merging adjacent windows which sum up as a power of
two (eg: #10 and #11 may be merged).

I tried to add a 3rd NIC in the mix (broadcom tg3), which caused the
myri10ge to fail to load for an obscure reason after loading igb
properly :

At least nothing seems wrong anywhere, so for now we should probably
ignore it, unless someone has a good idea about something to look at.

Now I'm using a Realtek instead of TG3, so I have this :

On the Mirabox, I don't see the igb NIC on lspci, but it's late and
I start to think slowly so I'll have to dig this out tomorrow. Hmmm
I'm seeing it after a rescan, it looks like the same issue that Neil
initially reported about the link up delay.

All the devices are detected now (including the USB3 controller) :

The nic properly loads :

And the mbus windows match expectations :

root@mirabox:~# grep -v disabled /sys/kernel/debug/mvebu-mbus/devices
[00] 00000000e8010000 - 00000000e8020000 : 0004:00e0 (remap 0000000000010000)

[11] 00000000e0400000 - 00000000e0500000 : 0004:00e8

So overall, it's a big Ack from my side considering the huge improvements,
let's retry tomorrow with the link up workaround/fix to see if the detection
issue is related. Great work!

Best regards,
Willy
