For mathematical completeness :) When limit is <= UINT32_MAX, that
implies that base is also <= UINT32_MAX, so that's why I'm not checking
base. However, length = limit - base + 1, and in theory, it can mean
length = UINT32_MAX - 0 + 1, which doesn't fit in a uint32_t.

In other words, limit is inclusive but length is exclusive, so it can be
1 higher (when base is 0).

(And checking only length is also not sufficient, of course.)

Hm. :)

Ah! Now that was a question I considered, but I couldn't decide if it
was a known / by-design choice (or limitation), or just an oversight in
the code. I figured I'd ask with a patch. :)

It seems to require a more complex patch than this, so I'd prefer to
leave it to you. (I have my hands full :))

Being 64-bit clean would be really nice, since the edk2 PCI host bridge
/ root bridge driver that OVMF uses really likes to allocate 64-bit BARs
high (unlike SeaBIOS which strives to keep everything low). Since many
devices have 64-bit capable BARs, they won't work behind PXBs (when
booting with OVMF) until this limitation is lifted.

But, as I said, I'd like to leave this to you, if you have time for it.
It is not urgent, just would be real good eventually.

Thanks!
Laszlo
