Currently, a hotplug bridge will be given hpmemsize additional memory and hpiosize additional io if available, in order to satisfy any future hotplug allocation requirements. These calculations don't consider the current memory/io size of the hotplug bridge/slot, so hotplug bridges/slots which have downstream devices will be allocated their current allocation in addition to the hpmemsize value. This makes for possibly undesirable results with a mix of unoccupied and occupied slots (ex, with hpmemsize=2M): 02:03.0 PCI bridge: <-- Occupied Memory behind bridge: d6200000-d64fffff [size=3M] 02:04.0 PCI bridge: <-- Unoccupied Memory behind bridge: d6500000-d66fffff [size=2M] This change considers the current allocation size when using the hpmemsize/hpiosize parameters to make the reservations predictable for the mix of unoccupied and occupied slots: 02:03.0 PCI bridge: <-- Occupied Memory behind bridge: d6200000-d63fffff [size=2M] 02:04.0 PCI bridge: <-- Unoccupied Memory behind bridge: d6400000-d65fffff [size=2M] Signed-off-by: Jon Derrick <jonathan.derrick@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
