That is fine for the Bridge. See include/linux/pci.h : #define PCI_ROM_RESOURCE 6 #define PCI_BRIDGE_RESOURCES 7 #define PCI_NUM_RESOURCES 11 IIRC, Bridges may have two 32-bit or one 64-bit BAR, Expansion ROM BAR and three "range" registers: IO Port, MMIO (Prefetchable and non-prefetchable). The BRIDGE_RESOURCES (7-10) are what failed to be assigned for some reason. Looking at setup-bus.c:pci_bridge_check_ranges(), I'm concluding that: [7] is IO Range. [8] is MMIO [9] is Prefetchable MMIO [10] no clue...maybe used by host PCI bus controllers. 0x100000 is 1MB and would be the minimum MMIO range that can be allocated. So that looks right too. Probably need to find out what is allocating 0xe0000000 instead. hth, grant -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
