[PATCH v4 1/2] pci: Identify Enhanced Allocation (EA) BAR Equivalent resources

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@xxxxxxxxxx>

Resource flags are exposed to userspace via the sysfs "resource" file.
lspci reads the sysfs file to determine resource properties.
Adding this flag allows lspci to distinguish between [virtual]
and [enhanced] resources.

If the resource is not aligned, userspace could deduce where
the resource is EA based on the size & address fields.
However, a flag indicating whether a PCI resource is a traditional BAR
or BAR equivalent seems like a much simpler solution and works if the
EA resource is aligned.

Although this patchset only improves lspci, other uses for this
flag have been identified. For example, vfio makes assumptions
about alignment and sizing, and runs into problems when attempting
to emulate a BAR Equivalent EA resource.
