Hi,

Basically, Solaris just keeps BIOS settings. But if bridges or devices
are detected to be I/O or MEM access disabled(either because they have
invalid address or are disabled in command), we'll try to re-program
them with valid resources.

And per my understanding, Solaris doesn't have limitation for MMIO
size.


Regards,
Kerry
