Thank you Ard,
Right, but PciHostBridgeDxe seems to work with one hostbridge.
I am confused that

// Make sure all root bridges share the same ResourceAssigned value

The rootbridges are independent on the platform, and should not share
anything. Or am I missing anything?
Anyway, I will try to return multiple hostbridges in the PciHostBridgeLib.

Thank you,
Vladimir
