[PATCH 0/2] PCI: Add support for PCI Enhanced Allocation "BARs"

From: Sean O. Stalley <hidden>
Date: 2015-08-20 17:01:44
Also in: linux-pci, lkml

PCI Enhanced Allocation is a new method of allocating MMIO & IO
resources for PCI devices & bridges. It can be used instead
of the traditional PCI method of using BARs.

EA entries are hardware-initialized to a fixed address.
Unlike BARs, regions described by EA are cannot be moved.
Because of this, only devices which are permanently connected to
the PCI bus can use EA. A removable PCI card must not use EA.

This patchset adds support for using EA entries instead of BARs.

The Enhanced Allocation ECN is publicly available here:
