Re: [Xen-devel] [v7][PATCH 06/16] hvmloader/pci: skip reserved ranges




Note here I don't address your comments above since I think we should achieve an agreement firstly.

I think bitmap mechanism is a good idea but honestly, its not easy to
cover all requirements here. And just like bootmem on Linux side, so its
a little complicated to implement this entirely. So I prefer not to
introduce this way in current phase.

I'm afraid it's going to be hard to convince me of any approaches
further complicating the current mechanism instead of overhauling
it.

I agree we'd better overhaul this since we already found something unreasonable here. But one or two weeks is really not enough to fix this with a bitmap framework, and although a bitmap can make mmio allocation better, but more complicated if we just want to allocate PCI mmio.

So could we do this next? I just feel if you'd like to pay more time help me refine our current solution, its relatively realistic to this case :) And then we can go into bitmap in details or work out a better solution in sufficient time slot.

Thanks
Tiejun
