[PATCH v8 2/5] PCI: endpoint: Add BAR subrange mapping support

Koichiro Den
2026-01-15T08:50:12Z

Extend the PCI endpoint core to support mapping subranges within a BAR.
Add an optional 'submap' field in struct pci_epf_bar so an endpoint
function driver can request inbound mappings that fully cover the BAR.

Introduce a new EPC feature bit, subrange_mapping, and reject submap
requests from pci_epc_set_bar() unless the controller advertises both
subrange_mapping and dynamic_inbound_mapping features.

The submap array describes the complete BAR layout (no overlaps and no
gaps are allowed to avoid exposing untranslated address ranges). This
provides the generic infrastructure needed to map multiple logical
regions into a single BAR at different offsets, without assuming a
controller-specific inbound address translation mechanism.
