But of_pci_get_host_bridge_resources() does not request the resources, it only creates them out of the DT ranges. If/when the driver decides the list of resources is correct and it can work with it can also request them and use whatever domain number allocation strategy it wants (auto-incrementing or DT based). So I don't think the global sequencing is broken here.So how does mvebu now allocate a unique domain number per mvebu_pcie?
I believe the answer to that is that the mvebu PCIe driver currently only supports one domain, and it will have the unique number '0', which is the default.
Which hw_pci callback should do that?
I think the purpose Lorenzo's patches (more to come) is to obsolete all of the hw_pci callbacks for modern drivers. Arnd
