Now PCI bridges (and PCIE root port too) get a bus range number in system init, basing on currently plugged devices. That's why when one wants to hotplug another bridge, it needs his child bus, which the parent is unable to provide.
Could you explain how you trigger this?
The suggested workaround is to have vendor-specific capability in RedHat generic pcie-root-port that contains number of additional bus to reserve on BIOS PCI init.
But wouldn't the proper fix be for the PCI bridge to have the subordinate value be extended to fit more bus ranges?
