Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] VT-d: improve RMRR validity checking
Hi,
Some Q35 mainboard that has buggy BIOS, I have one of this,
reports invalid DRHD in addition to the invalid RMRR.
Attached patch fixes this DRHD issue in the same way as RMRR.
And also, I fixed RMRR validity checking loop.
Noboru.

Currently, Xen checks RMRR range and disables VT-d if RMRR range is set
incorrectly in BIOS rigorously. But, actually we can ignore the RMRR if the
device under its scope are not pci discoverable, because the RMRR won't be used
by non-existed or disabled devices.
This patch ignores the RMRR if the device under its scope are not pci
discoverable, and only checks the validity of RMRRs that are actually used. In
order to avoid duplicate pci device detection code, this patch defines a
function pci_device_detect for it.
