Ilpo Järvinen fb08fec721 sparc/PCI: Correct 64-bit non-pref -> pref BAR resources
[ Upstream commit bdb32359ea ]

SPARC T5-2 dts describes some PCI BARs as 64-bit resources without the
pref(etchable) bit (0x83... vs 0xc3... in assigned-addresses) for address
ranges above the 4G threshold. Such resources cannot be placed into a
non-prefetchable PCI bridge window that is capable only of 32-bit
addressing. As such, it looks like the platform is improperly described by
the dts.

The kernel detects this problem (see the IORESOURCE_PREFETCH check in
pci_find_parent_resource()) and fails to assign these BAR resources to the
resource tree due to lack of a compatible bridge window.

Prior to 754babaaf3 ("sparc/PCI: Remove pcibios_enable_device() as they
do nothing extra") SPARC arch code did not test whether device resources
were successfully in the resource tree when enabling a device, effectively
hiding the problem. After removing the arch-specific enable code,
pci_enable_resources() refuses to enable the device when it finds not all
mem resources are assigned, and therefore mpt3sas can't be enabled:

  pci 0001:04:00.0: reg 0x14: [mem 0x801110000000-0x80111000ffff 64bit]
  pci 0001:04:00.0: reg 0x1c: [mem 0x801110040000-0x80111007ffff 64bit]
  pci 0001:04:00.0: BAR 1 [mem 0x801110000000-0x80111000ffff 64bit]: can't claim; no compatible bridge window
  pci 0001:04:00.0: BAR 3 [mem 0x801110040000-0x80111007ffff 64bit]: can't claim; no compatible bridge window
  mpt3sas 0001:04:00.0: BAR 1 [mem size 0x00010000 64bit]: not assigned; can't enable device

For clarity, this filtered log only shows failures for one mpt3sas device
but other devices fail similarly. In the reported case, the end result with
all the failures is an unbootable system.

Things appeared to "work" before 754babaaf3 ("sparc/PCI: Remove
pcibios_enable_device() as they do nothing extra") because the resource
tree is agnostic to whether PCI BAR resources are properly in the tree or
not. So as long as there was a parent resource (e.g. a root bus resource)
that contains the address range, the resource tree code just places
resource request underneath it without any consideration to the
intermediate BAR resource. While it worked, it's incorrect setup still.

Add an OF fixup to set the IORESOURCE_PREFETCH flag for a 64-bit PCI
resource that has the end address above 4G requiring placement into the
prefetchable window. Also log the issue.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
