One can ask more buses to be reserved for hotplug bridges by passing pci=hpbussize=N in the kernel command line. However, if the parent bus does not have enough bus space available we still create child bus with the requested number of subordinate buses. In the example below hpbussize is set to one more than we have available buses in the root port: pci 0000:07:00.0: [8086:1578] type 01 class 0x060400 pci 0000:07:00.0: calling pci_fixup_transparent_bridge+0x0/0x20 pci 0000:07:00.0: supports D1 D2 pci 0000:07:00.0: PME# supported from D0 D1 D2 D3hot D3cold pci 0000:07:00.0: PME# disabled pci 0000:07:00.0: scanning [bus 00-00] behind bridge, pass 0 pci 0000:07:00.0: bridge configuration invalid ([bus 00-00]), reconfiguring pci 0000:07:00.0: scanning [bus 00-00] behind bridge, pass 1 pci_bus 0000:08: busn_res: can not insert [bus 08-ff] under [bus 07-3f] (conflicts with (null) [bus 07-3f]) pci_bus 0000:08: scanning bus ... pci_bus 0000:0a: bus scan returning with max=40 pci_bus 0000:0a: busn_res: [bus 0a-ff] end is updated to 40 pci_bus 0000:0a: [bus 0a-40] partially hidden behind bridge 0000:07 [bus 07-3f] pci_bus 0000:08: bus scan returning with max=40 pci_bus 0000:08: busn_res: [bus 08-ff] end is updated to 40 Instead of allowing this we limit the subordinate number to be less than or equal the maximum subordinate number allocated for the parent bus (if it has any).
