Its NOT listing the I/o resource range for the bus1 .. what i expect like
this is NOT LISTING

1. Please help me to solve the above issue
It seems likely that the bridge at 0:2:0 is not, in reality, forwarding I/O
transactions to bus 1 because the I/O enable bit in its command register is
off. The output from `scanpci -v` would confirm this.
In any case, I strongly suspect that 0xf2000xxx I/O range to be completely
useless to the Lynx3DM board. As such, you have a system whose designers
wrong-headedly decided to cripple PCI I/O.
Your options seem to be ...
1) Hack the driver to not reference fixed I/O resources (likely in the
0x3B0-0x3DF range). Such a change would not be accepted unless it was
contolled by an option.
2) Replace the Lynx3DM with a board that does not need VGA resources.
2. I have another query.. If suppose i want to access the io reg from the
xfree driver shall i use the addr 0xf2000000 directly or any io remapping is
required for 0xf2000000? if required please help me how to do it ..
I've already pointed you to xf86EnableIO() in os-support/linux/lnx_video.c.
But I really don't think relocating the driver's I/O to 0xf2000000 will solve
anything.
