[edk2-devel] [PATCH EDK2 v1 1/1] MdeModulePkg: Modify PCD default value

[wanghuiqiang via groups.io]

+ Ard, Leif, Sami.
All OSes which use 64KB page size and the PCIe resource allocation rely on BIOS initialization will encounter VF BAR resource allocation issue.  

Thanks！

Hi Ray,

52 bit address ranges are supported only when using the 64KB translation granule for ARM64 platform, this is another scenario using 64K page size. We need set PcdSrIovSystemPageSize to 0x10 in such case to make BIOS resource assignment still appropriate even PCI DSM#5 function set as 0 which means the operating system must preserve PCI resource assignments made by firmware at boot time.  
Please let me know if you have any other concern for this patch.

Thanks!

Wenyi,
Can you explain a bit more about "if 52 bit physical address need to be supported, page size should also be set to 64KB alignment"?

Can the platform DSC override this value instead of changing the default value in MdeModulePkg.dec which impacts all platforms?

Thanks,
Ray

The default value of PcdSrIovSystemPageSize is 0x1, it means the memory BAR is 4KB alignment. When page size of OS is set to 64KB, as the resource partitions are different between OS and BIOS, it will cause pcie failture. And if 52 bit physical address need to be supported, page size should also be set to 64KB alignment.
So modify the default vaule of PcdSrIovSystemPageSize to 0x10 can meet the requirement above. And even if the OS is 4KB alignment, new value of PCD is compatible for this situation.
