This looks like a very bad idea, what happens if you're running on a
machine with 64K pages?


The EHEA_PAGESIZE define is needed for queue management to hardware side.

Do you really need hash defines for 0 and 1 ? They're fairly well
understood in C as meaning true and false.

What is a h_galpa? And why does it need a struct if it's just a u64?


The eHEA chip is not PCI attached but directly connected to a proprietary
bus. Currently, we can access it by a simple 64 bit address, but this is not
true in all cases. Having a struct here allows us to encapsulate the chip
register access and to respond to changes to system hardware.

We'll change the name to h_epa meaning "ehea physical address"

+       struct h_galpa user;    /* user space accessible resource
+                                  set to 0 if unused */
+       u32 pid;                /* PID of userspace galpa checking */
+};
+

+struct port_res_cfg {
+       int max_entries_rcq;
+       int max_entries_scq;
+       int max_entries_sq;
+       int max_entries_rq1;
+       int max_entries_rq2;
+       int max_entries_rq3;
+};

Enormous structs with no comments.
