Right, and the same translation can be used in __of_address_to_resource() going the opposite way. > > Do you have further comments about this?? > > I think there are two separate issues to be discussed: > > The first issue is about having of_translate_address failing due to > "range" missing.

I don't think we need to duplicate much, we can probably safely assume that there are no nontrivial ranges in devices below the LPC node, so we just walk up the bus to see if the node is a child (or possibly grandchild etc) of the LPC bus, and treat any IO port number under there as a physical port number, which has a known offset from the Linux I/O port number. > I think extending of_empty_ranges_quirk() may be a reasonable solution. > What do you think Arnd? I don't really like that idea, that quirk is meant to work around broken DTs, but we can just make the DT valid and implement the code properly. > The second issue is a conflict between cpu addresses used by the LPC > controller and i/o tokens from pci endpoints. > > About this what if we modify armn64_extio_ops to have a list of ranges > rather than only one range (now we have just start/end); then in the > LPC driver we can scan the LPC child devices and > 1) populate such list of ranges > 2) call pci_register_io_range for such ranges Scanning the child devices sounds really wrong, please register just one range that covers the bus to keep the workaround as simple as possible. > Then when calling __of_address_to_resource we retrieve I/O tokens > for the devices on top of the LPC driver and in the I/O accessors > we call pci_pio_to_address to figure out the cpu address and compare > it to the list of ranges in armn64_extio_ops. > > What about this? That seems really complex for something that can be quite simple. The only thing we need to worry about is that the io_range_list contains an entry for the LPC bus so we don't conflict with the PCI buses.
