[PATCH] arm64: acpi/pci: WARN() when ignoring _DSM request to preserve PCI resources

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

 



On arm64 ACPI systems, we unconditionally reconfigure the entire PCI
hierarchy at boot. This is a departure from what is customary on ACPI
systems, and may break assumptions in some places (e.g., CCIX), that
the OS will honour the PCI resource allocation as configured by the
firmware.

ACPI already specifies a device specific ACPI method (_DSM) for PCI
root bridge nodes that tells us whether the firmware thinks the
configuration should be ignored or preserved, but unfortunately, we
cannot simply change the behavior of the OS and start honouring
these requests unconditionally, given that firmware implementations
in the field may issue the _DSM request inadvertently and still rely
on the OS to create the resource allocation from scratch.

So as a preliminary step, let's issue a warning about this case,
increasing the likelihood that we can fix this behavior at some
point in the future.
