Guo and Gavin are working on the kernel changes (and Sapphire/OPAL changes?) and have already submitted patches. The patches did not make the 3.16 cut-off, so will need to be back-ported to the 14.10 kernel. I believe the patches are the set described by: https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2014-July/119170.html Contact Information = Brian Hart (ha...@us.ibm.com), Dave Marquardt (davem...@us.ibm.com) ---uname output--- Linux tul115p1 3.16.0-6-generic #11-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jul 28 02:00:45 UTC 2014 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux ---Additional Hardware Info--- Problem is seen with PCI adapters that request > 1G of BAR space. We've seen it with GPUs that request a BAR1 of size 16G. Machine Type = 8286-42A ---Debugger--- A debugger is not configured ---Steps to Reproduce--- Add a PCI adapter which requests huge BAR space in the system. The huge BARs will not be assigned and the adapter will likely not initialize.
