Currently the bios goes into an endless loop if more than 255 PCI buses are requested.
Hi Gerd, Thanks for looking into this.
Given the bus number register is 8bit I'm wondering whenever this is a valid hardware configuration in the first place?
For sure no :), however we do have a possible endless loop and maybe is cleaner to panic. (no matter who is "responsible")
In case it isn't I think qemu should throw an error instead if you try to create a vm with more than 255 pci busses.
I suppose it could go into QEMU too, I'll give it a try. Thanks, Marcel
cheers, Gerd
