Subject: [PATCH V9 0/5] Minimal alignment for p2p bars
Date: Fri,  7 Sep 2012 13:00:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1346994035-16218-1-git-send-email-shangw@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

v1 -> v2:
	* Shorten the varaible names so that they looks more short.
        * Changelog adjustment so that they looks more meaningful.
v2 -> v3:
        * Rebase to 3.5.RC4
v3 -> v4:
        * Merge Yinghai's patches.
        * Split patch for easy review.
        * Add function to retrieve the minimal alignment of p2p bridge.
v4 -> v5:
        * Rebase to 3.5.RC7
        * Introduce weak function pcibios_window_alignment() to retrieve
          I/O and memory alignment for P2P bridges.
        * Introduce pcibios_window_alignment() for ppc to override the
          PCI function.
        * Add ppc_md.pcibios_window_alignment() for specific platform like
          powernv can override ppc's pcibios_window_alignment().
v5 -> v6:
        * Refactor pcibios_window_alignment() so the platform-specific
          implementation needn't return the default alignment according
          to Bjorn's suggestion.
        * Simplify pbus_size_mem() according to Bjorn's suggestion: Just
          check the platform required alignment at very end and adjust
          the "min_align" if necessary.
v6 -> v7:
        * Change "type" to "b_res->flags & mask" while retrieving the
          minimal alignment for memory window according to Ram's suggestion.
        * Refactor pbus_size_mem() according to Ram's suggestion.
        * ppc_md.pcibios_window_alignment returns 1 for those PCI bridges
          behind PCI bridges so that PCI core will use default alignment
          values.
v7 -> v8:
	* Rebase to 3.6.RC2, which starts to use "struct resource" to represent
	  the range of PCI bus numbers that specific p2p bridge covers.
	* Define macros for the default alignment of P2P bars according to
	  Richard's comments.
v8 -> v9:
	* Rebase to 3.6.RC4
	* Remove the original first 3 patches since they're irrevelant to the
	  intention.
	* Platform can override p2p I/O alignment even the p2p bridge explicitly
	  requires 1KiB I/O alignment according to Bjorn's comments.
	* In function pbus_size_io(), the maximal allowed I/O alignment was changed
	  from 4KiB to 1KiB for those p2p bridges that require 1KiB alignment, which
	  is traced by variable "io_align". I'm not sure that's correct for 100% since
	  the original implementation had 1KiB for "io_align" for the case.
	* Adjustment for pnv_pci_window_alignment() so that we can use the default
	  alignments (4KiB for I/O, 1MiB for memory) if the PCI bus isn't the top
	  level bus in the associated EEH segment.
