These BARs are allocated and setup by the boot firmware long before Linus boots up. Not being able to handle 64-bit BARs properly wouldn't surprise me. But there could also be a Linux bug in decoding the openfirmware property values as well, so let's investigate that. Patrick, can you post a new "prtconf -pv" dump under Linux with this card in the machine? Also, please bootup with: of_debug=1 ofpci_debug=1 added to the kernel command line and post the resulting "dmesg". If there's something Linux isn't doing right, those dumps will help me spot it.
