Currently, the PEs and their associated resources are assigned

But this new code does not affect IOV and VF's PEs will still be created

Correct. VF PEs cannot be created in pnv_pci_setup_bridge() as the PF's
IOV capability isn't enabled at that point.
The
function is called for once after PCI probing and resources
assignment is completed. So it isn't hotplug friendly.
This creates PEs dynamically by ppc_md.pcibios_setup_bridge(), which
is called on the event during system bootup and PCI hotplug: updating
PCI bridge's windows after resource assignment/reassignment are done.
For partial hotplug case, where not all PCI devices belonging to the
PE are unplugged and plugged again, we just need unbinding/binding
the affected PCI devices with the corresponding PE without creating
new one.
As there is no upstream bridge for root bus that needs to be covered
by PE, we have to create PE for root bus in ppc_md.pcibios_setup_bridge()
before any other PEs can be created, as PE for root bus is the ancestor
to anyone else.
We did not need a root bus PE before? What is the other PE reserved for?
Comments only say "reserved"...
No, A PE for root bus is needed before.
Ok. We needed a PE for the root bus and we need it now. What changed? Why
do you reserve another PE?
other PEs can be for the PCI bus
originated from root port and the subordinate domains.
Also, the windows of root port or the upstream port of PCIe switch behind
root port are extended to be PHB's apertures to accommodate the additional
resources needed by newly plugged devices based on the fact: hotpluggable
slot is behind root port or downstream port of the PCIe switch behind
root port. The extension for those PCI brdiges' windows is done in
ppc_md.pcibios_setup_bridge() as well.
This patch seems to be doing way too many things, hard to follow.
Could you please split the patch into smaller chunks? For example (you can do
it totally different):
- move pnv_pci_ioda_setup_opal_tce_kill()
- move PE creation from pnv_pci_ioda_fixup() to pnv_pci_setup_bridge();
- add pnv_pci_fixup_bridge_resources()
- add an extra reserved PE for the root bus (and all this magic with
root_pe_idx/root_pe_populated)
- ...
I'll evaluate it later. It's always nice to have small patches. Thanks
for the comments.
