But just knowing the BARs position is enough for Xen to install the identity mappings AFAICT? Or are the more BARs that will only appear after the SR-IOV functionality has been enabled? From the documentation that I've found, if you detect that the device has PCI_EXT_CAP_ID_SRIOV, you can then read the BARs and map them into Dom0, but maybe I'm missing something (and I have not been able to test this, although my previous PVHv2 Dom0 series already contained code in order to perform this): http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=people/royger/xen.git;a=commit;h=260cfd1e96e56ab4b58a414d544d92a77e210050 > Capabilities: [160 v1] Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) > IOVCap: Migration-, Interrupt Message Number: 000 > IOVCtl: Enable- Migration- Interrupt- MSE- ARIHierarchy+ > IOVSta: Migration- > Initial VFs: 8, Total VFs: 8, Number of VFs: 0, Function > Dependency Link: 00 > VF offset: 128, stride: 2, Device ID: 10ca > Supported Page Size: 00000553, System Page Size: 00000001 > Region 0: Memory at 00000000fbda0000 (64-bit, > non-prefetchable) > Region 3: Memory at 00000000fbd80000 (64-bit, > non-prefetchable) > VF Migration: offset: 00000000, BIR: 0 > Kernel driver in use: igb > > And if I enable SR-IOV on the PF I get: > > 0a:00.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Gigabit Network > Connection (rev 01) > 0a:10.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Virtual Function (rev 01) > 0a:10.2 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Virtual Function (rev 01) > 0a:10.4 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Virtual Function (rev 01) > 0a:10.6 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Virtual Function (rev 01) > 0a:11.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Virtual Function (rev 01) > 0a:11.2 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Virtual Function (rev 01) > 0a:11.4 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Virtual Function (rev 01) > > -bash-4.1# lspci -s 0a:10.0 -v > 0a:10.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Virtual Function > (rev 01) > Subsystem: Super Micro Computer Inc Device 10c9 > Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0 > [virtual] Memory at fbda0000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] > [virtual] Memory at fbd80000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] > Capabilities: [70] MSI-X: Enable+ Count=3 Masked- > Capabilities: [a0] Express Endpoint, MSI 00 > Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting > Capabilities: [150] Alternative Routing-ID Interpretation (ARI) > Kernel driver in use: igbvf > > -bash-4.1# lspci -s 0a:11.4 -v > 0a:11.4 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82576 Virtual Function > (rev 01) > Subsystem: Super Micro Computer Inc Device 10c9 > Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0 > [virtual] Memory at fbdb8000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] > [virtual] Memory at fbd98000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] > Capabilities: [70] MSI-X: Enable+ Count=3 Masked- > Capabilities: [a0] Express Endpoint, MSI 00 > Capabilities: [100] Advanced Error Reporting > Capabilities: [150] Alternative Routing-ID Interpretation (ARI) > Kernel driver in use: igbvf So it seems that the memory for individual VFs is taken from the BARs listed inside of PCI_EXT_CAP_ID_SRIOV. > > > > PCI memory BARs > > > > --------------- > > > > > > > > PCI devices discovered by Xen will have it's BARs scanned in order to > > > > detect > > > > memory BARs, and those will be identity mapped to Dom0.

Hm, MCFG is a top-level table on it's own, and AFAIK not tied to the MADT in any way. I'm not opposed to introduce PHYSDEVOP_pci_mmcfg_reserved if it's really needed, but I won't do this blindly. We first need to know if there are systems out there that don't report MMCFG areas in the MCFG ACPI table properly, and then whether those systems would actually be capable of running a PVH Dom0 (if they are old like IBM HS-20 they won't be capable of running a PVH Dom0 due to missing virtualization features anyway).
