Hi, Arnd,

Thanks you very much!

To understand your idea more clear, I have some questions on your patch sketch.
Please check it below.

I think those changes in pci_root.c is only to match the new definition of
pci_register_io_range() and work for PCI I/O. It doesn't make sense for LPC, is
it right?

I don't think here is the right place to fill *host. I think you want to return
the parent where the of_translate_one() failed for the 'ranges' property
missing. So, I think this seems better:

if (of_translate_one(dev, bus, pbus, addr, na, ns, pna, rprop)) {
*host = of_node_get(dev);
break;
}

I don't think it is safe to only check the node had been registered. For
PCI/PCIE, there is only one I/O windows in bridge, it seems ok. But for non-pci
devices, such as ISA/LPC, I wonder it is possible there are several disjoint I/O
'ranges' entries...

What parameters are necessary for linux PIO allocation?
1) For those bus devices which have no MMIO( that is to say, indirectIO is
using), I think 'addr' is not needed, but 'size' is mandatory;

I am thinking for our LPC, as there is no cpu address, we should not input
'addr' for the io range register. With 'size' as parameter, we implement a new
io range register function where can assign an unique linux PIO for this
register calling. The output linux PIO can allocate from a sub-range of whole
I/O space of [0, IO_SPACE_LIMIT]. This sub-range is specific for indirectIO, I
want to define a new macro, such as EXTIO_LIMIT, to represent the upper limit of
indirect IO space.

#if defined(CONFIG_PCI) && defined(CONFIG_INDIRECT_PIO)
#define EXTIO_LIMIT PCIBIOS_MIN_IO
#elif defined(CONFIG_INDIRECT_PIO)
#define EXTIO_LIMIT 0x1000
#else
#define EXTIO_LIMIT 0x00
#end

We should do some checkings to ensure EXTIO_LIMIT < IO_SPACE_LIMIT.

Then when someone call pci_register_io_range() or a new function for the linux
PIO register, we can allocate linux PIO from [0, EXTIO_LIMIT) for indirectIO
bus, from [EXTIO_LIMIT, IO_SPACE_LIMIT] for MMIO;

But there are issues confused me yet. For example, how to know the IO size for
the indirectIO bus? You known, there is no 'ranges' property for those buses....

2) For PCI MMIO, I think 'addr' is needed

As for the current pci_register_io_range()/pci_address_to_pio(), I have two doubts:

2.1) If there are multiple PCI host bridges which support I/O transaction, I
wonder whether the first host bridge can access the downstream devices with bus
I/O address in [0, PCIBIOS_MIN_IO)

for the first host bridge, pci_address_to_pio() will return a linux PIO range
start from 0.
But when calling __pci_assign_resource() to allocate the linux PIO for PCI/PCIE
devices/buses which are just children of first host bus, it can not allocate
linux PIO less than PCIBIOS_MIN_IO, which means kernel can not called in/out()
with port less than PCIBIOS_MIN_IO. But we had ioremap [PCI_IOBASE + 0,
PCI_IOBASE + size) to [pci_ioadd, pci_ioadd + size) before.

static int __pci_assign_resource(struct pci_bus *bus, struct pci_dev *dev,
int resno, resource_size_t size, resource_size_t align)
{
struct resource *res = dev->resource + resno;
resource_size_t min;
int ret;

min = (res->flags & IORESOURCE_IO) ? PCIBIOS_MIN_IO : PCIBIOS_MIN_MEM;

and in the later function:

static int pci_bus_alloc_from_region(struct pci_bus *bus, struct resource *res,
resource_size_t size, resource_size_t align,
resource_size_t min, unsigned long type_mask,
resource_size_t (*alignf)(void *,

....
pci_bus_for_each_resource(bus, r, i) {
resource_size_t min_used = min;
....
if (avail.start)
min_used = avail.start;

max = avail.end;

/* Ok, try it out.. */
ret = allocate_resource(r, res, size, min_used, max,
align, alignf, alignf_data);

After allocate_resource(), a IO resource is allocated, but whose 'start' is not
less than min_used.( since avail.start is 0, min_used will keep the 'min'
without change to avail.start; Should be PCIBIOS_MIN_IO).

2.2) Is it possible the return linux PIO isn't page-aligned?

When calling pci_remap_iospace(const struct resource *res, phys_addr_t
phys_addr), if res->start is not page-aligned, it seems that
ioremap_page_range() will meet some issues for duplication iorempa for same
virtual page.

of-course, if we always configure the I/O ranges size as page-aligned, it will
be OK.

I found PowerPC will ensure the 'vaddress' and the 'size' are page-aligned
before ioremap, do we need to improve the current handling in
pci_register_io_range/pci_address_to_pio?

Thanks,
