There is one file that I understand better than any other in Linux - that is drivers/pci/setup-bus.c I understand it well enough that I was able to do a fairly big rewrite for my own purposes some time ago. It was mostly educational. What I learned is how broken everything is. A lot of problems stem from the fact that we are trying to support BIOS allocation and native at the same time. The two need to be mutually exclusive. X86 seems to be the biggest block from going to native. The amount of stuff in the X86 arch folder is crazy - and then you have riscv/ with almost nothing - which is how it should be, in my opinion. In other words, we are stuck in an unpleasant situation with no way out. > > > > > - resource_size_t remaining_io, remaining_mmio, remaining_mmio_pref; > > > > + resource_size_t io_per_hp, mmio_per_hp, mmio_pref_per_hp, align; > > > > unsigned int normal_bridges = 0, hotplug_bridges = 0; > > > > struct resource *io_res, *mmio_res, *mmio_pref_res; > > > > struct pci_dev *dev, *bridge = bus->self; > > > > @@ -1855,15 +1853,29 @@ static void pci_bus_distribute_available_resources(struct pci_bus *bus, > > > > mmio_pref_res = &bridge->resource[PCI_BRIDGE_RESOURCES + 2]; > > > > > > > > /* > > > > - * Update additional resource list (add_list) to fill all the > > > > - * extra resource space available for this port except the space > > > > - * calculated in __pci_bus_size_bridges() which covers all the > > > > - * devices currently connected to the port and below. > > > > + * The alignment of this bridge is yet to be considered, hence it must > > > > + * be done now before extending its bridge window. > > > > */ > > > > - extend_bridge_window(bridge, io_res, add_list, available_io); > > > > - extend_bridge_window(bridge, mmio_res, add_list, available_mmio); > > > > + align = pci_resource_alignment(bridge, io_res); > > > > + if (!io_res->parent && align) > > > > + io.start = ALIGN(io.start, align); > > > > + > > > > + align = pci_resource_alignment(bridge, mmio_res); > > > > + if (!mmio_res->parent && align) > > > > + mmio.start = ALIGN(mmio.start, align); > > > > + > > > > + align = pci_resource_alignment(bridge, mmio_pref_res); > > > > + if (!mmio_pref_res->parent && align) > > > > + mmio_pref.start = ALIGN(mmio_pref.start, align); > > > > + > > > > + /* > > > > + * Update the resources to fill as much remaining resource space in the > > > > + * parent bridge as possible, while considering alignment. > > > > + */ > > > > + extend_bridge_window(bridge, io_res, add_list, resource_size(&io)); > > > > + extend_bridge_window(bridge, mmio_res, add_list, resource_size(&mmio)); > > > > extend_bridge_window(bridge, mmio_pref_res, add_list, > > > > - available_mmio_pref); > > > > + resource_size(&mmio_pref)); > > > > > > I think this should be aligned like: > > > > > > extend_bridge_window(bridge, mmio_pref_res, add_list, > > > resource_size(&mmio_pref)); > > Me too, I do not know how that one slipped past me. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > /* > > > > * Calculate how many hotplug bridges and normal bridges there > > > > @@ -1884,108 +1896,90 @@ static void pci_bus_distribute_available_resources(struct pci_bus *bus, > > > > */ > > > > if (hotplug_bridges + normal_bridges == 1) { > > > > dev = list_first_entry(&bus->devices, struct pci_dev, bus_list); > > > > - if (dev->subordinate) { > > > > + if (dev->subordinate) > > > > pci_bus_distribute_available_resources(dev->subordinate, > > > > - add_list, available_io, available_mmio, > > > > - available_mmio_pref); > > > > - } > > > > + add_list, io, mmio, mmio_pref); > > > > return; > > > > } > > > > > > > > - if (hotplug_bridges == 0) > > > > - return; > > > > - > > > > /* > > > > - * Calculate the total amount of extra resource space we can > > > > - * pass to bridges below this one.
