Hello,
I'm running a x86 QEMU with Ubuntu. On this system we want to emulate a PCIe device which contains a large 32-bit BAR (2 GiB). This is not working and I get following error:
SeaBIOS (version rel-1.14.0-0-g155821a-20210629_105355-sharpie)

I've had a look at the code and it seems that 32-bit BAR's have a limited memory region available (less than 1 GiB). Is there a possibility to use such large 32-bit BAR's in combination with SeaBios by e.g. mapping them in the higher memory region where 64-bit BAR's are mapped?
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Wannes
