This patchset fixes problems while trying to allocate space for PCI
endpoint function.
The problems, and related fixups, have been found while trying to link two
renesas rcar-gen4 r8a779f0-spider devices with the vNTB endpoint
function. This platform has 2 configurable BAR0 and BAR2, with an alignment
of 1MB, and fairly small fixed BAR4 of 256B.
This was tested with
* BAR0 (1MB): CTRL+SPAD
* BAR2 (1MB): MW0
* BAR4 (256B): Doorbell
This setup is currently not supported by the vNTB EP driver and requires a
small hack. I'm working on that too.
Changes in v4:
- Drop patch 1 of v3 and add new .aligned_size in struct pci_epf_bar
instead re-computing the aligned size on the path freeing the memory
- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250407-pci-ep-size-alignment-v3-0-865878e68cc8@baylibre.com
Changes in v3:
- Rebased on v6.15-rc1
- Fix build issue with newly introduced nvme endpoint function
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250404-pci-ep-size-alignment-v2-0-c3a0db4cfc57@baylibre.com
Changes in v2:
- Allocate space that match the iATU alignment requirement, as previously
done.
- Chose not to add a new member in struct pci_epf_bar, as initially
discussed. After reworking the code, that did not seem necessary.
- Make sure SPAD registers are 4 bytes aligned in the vNTB endpoint function
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250328-pci-ep-size-alignment-v1-0-ee5b78b15a9a@baylibre.com
