Subject: How acpi_walk_resources() find specific _CRS for one device

Experts
I am reading the PCI enumeration code on x86. One thing on ACPI
namespace puzzles me.
In the initialize process, the call flow is like this
acpi_pci_root_add()
try_get_root_bridge_busnr()
acpi_walk_resources(handle, METHOD_NAME__CRS,
get_root_bridge_busnr_callback, res)
By reading the ACPI spec, this is trying to go through the namespace and
find the _CRS method/object.
1. Hmm... I want to know this function is trying to go through the whole
namespace or just the device related namespace?
2. If it is searching the whole namespace, how could this function find the
device specific resource just by given the "_CRS" as a parameter?
3. Also, if it just go through the device specific namespace, which
parameter identify this.
Here is an example in the ACPI specification in 9.11.1:
Device (PCI0) { // PCI Root Bridge
Name (_HID, EISAID("PNP0A03"))
Name (_UID, 0)
Name (_BBN, 0x00)
Name (_SEG, 0x00) // assign segment 0 of module device to PCI0
Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate () {
WordBusNumber (
ResourceProducer,
MinFixed, // _MIF
MaxFixed,, // _MAF
0x00, // _GRA
0x00, // _MIN
0xFF, // _MAX
0x0, // _TRA
0x80) // _LEN
WordIO (
ResourceProducer,
MinFixed, // _MIF
MaxFixed,,, // _MAF
0x0000, // _GRA
0x0000, // _MIN
0x0CF7, // _MAX
0x0, // _TRA
0x0CF8) // _LEN
DWordMemory (
ResourceProducer,,
MinNotFixed, // _MIF
MaxNotFixed, // _MAF
NonCacheable, // _MEM
ReadWrite, // _RW
0x0FFFFFFF, // _GRA
0x40000000, // _MIN
0x5FFFFFFF, // _MAX
0x0, // _TRA
0x00000000) // _LEN
})
}
}
Device (PCI1) { // PCI Root Bridge
Name (_HID, EISAID("PNP0A03"))
Name (_UID, 0)
Name (_BBN, 0x00)
Name (_SEG, 0x01) // assign segment 1 of module device to PCI1
Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate () {
WordBusNumber (
ResourceProducer,
MinFixed, //
MaxFixed,, //
0x00, //
0x00, //
0x7F, //
0x0, //
0x80) //
WordIO (
ResourceProducer,
MinFixed, //
MaxFixed, //
0x0000, //
0x0D00, //
0x7FFF, //
0x0, //
0x7300) //
DWordMemory (
ResourceProducer,
MinNotFixed,
MaxNotFixed,
NonCacheable,
ReadWrite,
0x0FFFFFFF,
0x60000000,
0x7FFFFFFF,
0x0,
0x00000000)
})
}
}
We can see there are two PCI Root Bridge, and each has its own _CRS
field. And each field has its own busnumber/iores/memios.
So, in the acpi_walk_resources() function, how to find the proper _CRS
infomation for a root device?
