Hi Rob, We have a question on the PCIe device tree bindings. In summary, we have come across the Raspberry Pi 4 PCIe description below: pcie0: pcie@7d500000 { compatible = "brcm,bcm2711-pcie"; reg = <0x0 0x7d500000 0x0 0x9310>; device_type = "pci"; #address-cells = <3>; #interrupt-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <2>; interrupts = <GIC_SPI 148 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>, <GIC_SPI 148 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>; interrupt-names = "pcie", "msi"; interrupt-map-mask = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0x7>; interrupt-map = <0 0 0 1 &gicv2 GIC_SPI 143 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>; msi-controller; msi-parent = <&pcie0>; ranges = <0x02000000 0x0 0xc0000000 0x6 0x00000000 0x0 0x40000000>; /* * The wrapper around the PCIe block has a bug * preventing it from accessing beyond the first 3GB of * memory. */ dma-ranges = <0x02000000 0x0 0x00000000 0x0 0x00000000 0x0 0xc0000000>; brcm,enable-ssc; pci@1,0 { #address-cells = <3>; #size-cells = <2>; ranges; reg = <0 0 0 0 0>; usb@1,0 { reg = <0x10000 0 0 0 0>; resets = <&reset RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_RESET_ID_USB>; }; }; }; Xen fails to parse it with an error because it tries to remap reg = <0x10000 0 0 0 0> as if it was a CPU address and of course it fails. Reading the device tree description in details, I cannot tell if Xen has a bug: the ranges property under pci@1,0 means that pci@1,0 is treated like a default bus (not a PCI bus), hence, the children regs are translated using the ranges property of the parent (pcie@7d500000). Is it possible that the device tree is missing device_type = "pci" under pci@1,0? Or is it just implied because pci@1,0 is a child of pcie@7d500000? I'd like to make Xen able to parse this device tree without errors but I am not sure what is the best way to fix it. Thanks for any help you can provide!
