Laszlo,
Thanks for the detailed explanation and I agrees with your idea that a generic
driver should consider the case that part of the IO/MMIO resource may be
already added by platform, no matter by PEI or by DXE.

So I think we may not need the flag you proposed here. To achieve the maximum
flexibility, we can use gDS.GetMemorySpaceMap/GetIoSpaceMap to retrieve all
the current MMIO/IO space map and only add those ranges that are not added.

And to be more robust, we can check that the range specified to the root bridge
should not be allocated by anyone (CAN be added by someone).

What's your opinion?


Regards,
Ray

Hi Ray,

I have a work-in-progress series to convert OvmfPkg to use this driver.
While testing it, I ran into a failed assertion:

This assertion fails here with with "Access Denied".

The reason is that we add IO and MMIO space still in PEI, as resource
descriptor HOBs, and then the DXE core primes the GCD memory space map
from them. Adding the same IO space here with the appropriate DXE
service runs into a conflict justifiedly, and it is rejected.

My question is if we could make the GCD memory space map manipulation
optional in this driver:

The PCI_ROOT_BRIDGE structure could be extended with a UINT32 flag. For
each of Io, Mem, MemAbove4G, PMem, PMemAbove4G, the PciHostBridgeLib
instance producing the PCI_ROOT_BRIDGE structure could set a separate
bit, indicating whether PciHostBridgeDxe should add (and set the
attributes of) the given aperture to the GCD memory space map.

Since this is a generic driver, I think it should accommodate the case
when the relevant apertures are described during PEI. (Not just because
that's what OVMF does, but because said practice is valid, as far as I
understand / recall the PI specs.)

In my (limited) experience it varies between PCI host bridge drivers
whether they install the apertures themselves, or rely on them already
being present.

In ArmVirtPkg/PciHostBridgeDxe/, the driver installs the (emulated) IO
and (real) MMIO space itself; while in OvmfPkg (and the original
PcAtChipsetPkg driver), this does not happen.

If you agree with the idea, I can try writing a patch for it.

Alternatively, you could require from the PciHostBridgeGetRootBridges()
API that on return, all the necessary GCD memory space map entries be in
place. At the moment, both approaches would work for me.

... Hm, I was too curious, and wrote the patch just now. OVMF (ported to
PciHostBridgeDxe) works well with it; I retested the multiple root
bridges case too, and compared the OVMF debug log & the Linux guest
dmesg before<->after. The resource assignments are the same. I also
regression tested a Windows 8.1 guest, with 6GB RAM.

So, what do you think of the attached patch? If you are okay with it, I
can submit it as part of my upcoming OVMF series.

Thanks!
Laszlo
