[PATCH 1/1] PCI: Fix premature removal from realloc_head list
From: Ilpo Järvinen
Date: Fri Mar 13 2026 - 04:46:27 EST
reassign_resources_sorted() checks for two things:
a) Resource assignment failures for mandatory resources by checking if
the resource remains unassigned, which are known to always repeat,
and does not attempt to assign them again.
b) That resource is not among the ones being processed/assigned at this
stage, leading to skip processing such resources in
reassign_resources_sorted() as well (resource assignment progresses
one PCI hierarchy level at a time).
The problem here is that a) is checked before b) but b) also implies
the resources is not being assigned yet, making also a) true. As a)
only skips resource assignment but still removes the resource from
realloc_head, the later stages that would need to process the
information in realloc_head cannot obtain the optional size information
anymore. This leads to considering only non-optional part for bridge
windows deeper in the PCI hierarchy.
This problem has been observed during rescan (add_size is not
considered while attempting assignment for 0000:e2:00.0 indicating the
corresponding entry was removed from realloc_head while processing
resource assignments for 0000:e1):
