There are two problems with the bus_max calculation:

1) The u8 data type can overflow for large config space windows.

2) The calculation is incorrect for a bus range that doesn't start at
zero.

Since the configuration space is relative to bus zero, make bus_max
just be the size of the config window scaled by bus_shift. Then clamp
it to a maximum of 255, per PCI. Use a data type of int to avoid
overflow problems.

Hmm, this is changing the meaning of the bus-range property in the
device-tree, which really needs to match what IEEE Std 1275-1994 requires.

I doesn't change the bus-range.


My understanding was that the bus-range could be used to offset the config
space, which is why it's subtracted from the bus number in
gen_pci_map_cfg_bus_[e]cam.

There is an inconsistency in the current code. The calculation of the cfg.win[?] pointers is done such that the beginning of the config space specified in the "reg" property corresponds to bus 0.

The calculation that I am changing, was done such that the beginning of the config space specified in the "reg" property corresponds to the first bus of the "bus-range"

Which is correct? I assumed that the config space specified in the "reg" property corresponds to bus 0. Based on this assumption, I made the bus_max calculation match.

Due to hardware peculiarities, our bus-range starts at a non-zero bus number. So, something has to be done to make all the code agree on a single interpretation of the meaning "reg" property.

Also, why is your config space so large that
we end up overflowing bus_max?

It isn't. The part of the patch that changes the type from u8 to int was just to add some sanity. The code was easily susceptible to overflow failures, it seemed best to change to int.
