Re: PCI IO memory resource allocation
You should have a look in Linux Device Drivers, Cap. 9, and Cap. 12.

As far as I know, the PCI mem resouces are allocated mainly by BIOS on Intel based system, but they can also be allocated by linux kernel according to boot command option. I tried to find the routine in kernel source directory, but it was not easy to find it. I want to find the source code in which linux kernel allocates the I/O memory for PCI device. I had a problem in my pci device which uses SR-IOV function indicates that the MMIO is allocated in sufficiently and my BIOS is old version, so I hope to solve the problem using the linux kerenl for allocating the I/O mem for the pci device and to know where the source code is for that.

PCI IO memory resource allocation
Hi, everyone In kernel source, where is the PCI IO memory resource allocation is done? (memory mapped io) And can you explain the IO memory resource allocation mechanism? Thanks in advance Best Regards, J.Hwan Kim ___ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
