(although another bz claims some patches may fix it; these same patches have caused regressions in other machines.) The BIOS must be 'SRIOV savvy' meaning, it must scan the (architected) PCI cap structures of devices looking for SRIOV caps, and ensure the PCI bridges leading to those devices have sufficient memory resources for the PF & VF devices below it. btw: I hope VTd was enabled in the BIOS, and the kernel command line had something like intel_iommu=on or amd_iommu=on (Q: is the machine an Intel or AMD machine, and what is it's chipset? ... an lspci -vvv dump would be helpful confirmation.)

If this was tested with a *recent* rhel5.5 installation, and SELinux is enabled, there were SELinux access (default policy) problems which maybe the culprit. An update to the nightly RHEL5 repo may resolve it.... but.... Comparing the pci_cfg_space_size() code btwn rhel5 & rhel6, it appears rhel6 filters this access a bit further dependent on the type of device it is checking. So, it's possible if yet-another-BIOS bug doesn't properly enable pci-mmconf for the particular device &/or PCI bridge, RHEL5 will be limited and RHEL6 will work around it. Given this is the first failure I've seen like this (btwn RHEL5 & RHEL6 dev-assignment) and the first on this HP system, I (still) tend to believe a BIOS fix/upgrade would resolve this issue.

We've seen this recently on a couple systems. Sometimes it's alleviated by trying a different slot in the machine. If not, it once again points to a BIOS that is not SRIOV savvy.
