Hi all,

I got the solution, the ranges can define two or more ranges. What I need to do
is just add ranges for 0xe0000000 - 0xf0000000 as the following:

soc {
	ranges = <0 0xf7000000 0x1000000
		  0xe0000000 0xe0000000 0x10000000>;  //add this line
	...
	pcie: pcie at e40000 {
		...
		reg = <0xe40000 0x10000>, <0xe0000000 0x8000000>;
		reg-names = "dbi", "pad", "config";
		...
	};
}

Now, we can get the config space correctly.


Thanks,
Jisheng
