Hi Rafael, When reverting to the behavior before v3.19, I found a simpler solution. The logic before v3.19 is: on x86 and IA64, all IO port and MMIO resources assigned to PCI host bridge are available to child bus/devices, except one special case to filter out IO port[0xCF8-0xCFF] for PCI configuration space access. And with pre-v3.19 kernels, all IO port defined by IO and fixed_IO resource descriptors are ignored to filter out IO port[0xCF8-0xCFF]. So I plan to make following change to revert to the behavior before v3.19: 1) make acpi_dev_filter_resource_type() filter descriptors based on descriptor type, and don't check consumer_producer flag anymore. 2) use IORESOURCE_IO_FIXED flag to filter out io and fixed_io resource descriptors. 3) x86 ACPI pci host bridge driver calls acpi_dev_filter_resource_type() with flag IORESOURCE_IO_FIXED, By this way, we could keep acpi_dev_filter_resource_type() as a generic interface and could be reused. And the change is small too. Any comments? Thanks! Gerry > Rafael >
