I tried this series on Rock5b (RK3588), and was surprised to see the doorbell
test case still failing.

It turns out that this check is the reason for it still failing.

You see, for a BAR that is marked as BAR_RESERVED, pci-epf-test will not
allocate backing memory, so epf->bar[bar].size will be 0.

If I removed this check, I could get the test case to pass.

As I suggested in my previous email, perhaps this check is better suited
in pci_epf_alloc_doorbell(). (As a DWORD alignment check inside
pci_epf_alloc_doorbell(). pci_epf_alloc_doorbell() could itself return
error if the doorbell is not DWORD aligned.)

That way, you could remove this check from pci_epf_test_enable_doorbell(),
and we don't need to care about epf->bar[bar].size.


Kind regards,
Niklas
