You should not need to hardcode these here. The ORION5X_PCIE_WA_PHYS_BASE
should already be part of the DT binding.
Of course! But the issue is that we do not know how to do this DT
binding. I have already wrote email with asking for help in which
property and which format should be this config range defined, but no
answer yet: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20220710225108.bgedria6igtqpz5l@pali/ (local)
Ah, I had not seen that email. Quoting from there:
So my question is: How to properly define config space range in device
tree file? In which device tree property and in which format? Please
note that this memory range of config space is PCIe root port specific
and it requires its own MBUS_ID() like memory range of PCIe MEM and PCIe
IO mapping. Please look e.g. at armada-385.dtsi how are MBUS_ID() used:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-385.dtsi
This is probably a question for Rob as the mvebu driver is a rather special
case. Normally this would just be a 'reg' property of the host bridge,
but I think
in your case the root device is imaginary, and the ports under it are the
actual hardware devices, so you'll probably have to do the same thing as
the armada-385, translating the mbus ranges for the config space in the
"ranges" property of the parent, and then referring to them by PCI
MMIO addresses using the assigned-addresses property to pass the
config-space registers as a second set of registers in addition to the
first set.

There is little practical difference
here, but I see no value in taking the shortcut here either.

For the ORION5X_PCIE_WA_VIRT_BASE, you rely on this to match the
definition in arch/arm/mach-orion5x/common.c, and this is rather fragile.

Instead, please use ioremap() to create a mapping at runtime. The ioremap()
implementation on ARM is smart enough to reuse the address from the static
mapping in common.c, but will also keep working if that should go away.
I'm planning to work with Mauri on this, but current blocker is DT.
Ok. It should not be hard to do this first, as you just need to pass the
same physical address that you pass in the mbus setup, but I agree
it's easier to do this afterwards to avoid having to rewrite it again.

This is probably good enough here, though I think you could also use
the trick from drivers/pci/ecam.c and map each bus at a time.
Yes, there are also helper functions like map bus and etc. which could
simplify this code. I'm planning to do cleanups once we have fully
working driver for Orion.
Ok. This is probably not worth the effort if the old driver doesn't already
do provide access to the high registers.
