The Linux kernel needs support for this interface to use attached devices, such as a UART and the IPMI system interface. + + [Test Case] + Boot up a HiSilicon D05 system, confirm that the following command returns w/o error: + + $ sudo ipmitool lan print + + [Regression Risk] + The proposed patchset only enables LIBIO for arm64, so the greatest regression risk is to other arm64 systems. We have mitigated that by testing on a wide range of hardware (all certified arm64 servers + some in-devel systems). There remains some arch-independent changes to the generic PCI code. The patch "PCI: Restore codepath for !CONFIG_LIBIO" was added to mitigate the risk to other architectures by restoring the previous code for those architectures.
