[RFC PATCH v2 2/3] vfio-pci: Allow to mmap sub-page MMIO BARs if all MMIO BARs are page aligned

From: Yongji Xie
Date: Thu Dec 31 2015 - 03:53:31 EST


Current vfio-pci implementation disallows to mmap
sub-page(size < PAGE_SIZE) MMIO BARs because these BARs' mmio
page may be shared with other BARs.

But we should allow to mmap these sub-page MMIO BARs if PCI
resource allocator enforces the alignment of all MMIO BARs
to be at least PAGE_SIZE.
