It is correct, but that's only part of the story. Parsing the 64-bit aperture from the DTB into new PCDs in ArmVirtPkg/VirtFdtDxe is the easy part. The hard part is modifying ArmVirtPkg/PciHostBridgeDxe, so that BAR allocation requests (submitted by the platform independent PCI bus driver that resides in "MdeModulePkg/Bus/Pci/PciBusDxe") are actually serviced from this high aperture too. > >> Unfortunately I can't readily help with that in the >> "ArmVirtPkg/PciHostBridgeDxe" driver; there's no such (open-source) >> example in the edk2 tree.

Good question. I don't know. I think in order to answer this question, we should understand the whole dance between the PCI root bridge / host bridge driver and the generic PCI bus driver. The documentation I know of is in the Platform Init spec, version 1.4, Volume 5, Chapter 10 "PCI Host Bridge". I've taken multiple stabs at that chapter earlier, but I've always given up. Sorry I can't help more, but this is new area for me as well. Laszlo
