I really don't like this 'mutually exclusive' fields approach because IMHO it increases confusion level when undertanding this capability structure. But - if we came to consensus on that, then IO fields should be used in the same way, because as I understand, this 'mutual exclusivity' serves to distinguish cases when we employ only *_LIMIT register and both *_LIMIT an UPPER_*_LIMIT registers. And this is how both IO and PREFETCHABLE works, isn't it?
I would just use simeple 64 bit registers. PCI spec has an ugly format with fields spread all over the place but that is because of compatibility concerns. It makes not sense to spend cycles just to be similarly messy.
Then I suggest to use exactly one field of a maximum possible size for each reserving object, and get rid of mutually exclusive fields. Then it can be something like that (order and names can be changed): u8 bus; u16 non_pref; u32 io; u64 pref;
I think Michael suggested:
u64 bus_res; u64 mem_res; u64 io_res; u64 mem_pref_res;OR: u32 bus_res; u32 mem_res; u32 io_res; u64 mem_pref_res;
We can use 0XFFF..F as "not-set" value "merging" Gerd's and Michael's requests.
Let's dwell on the second option (with -1 as 'ignore' sign), if no new objections.
BTW, talking about limit values provided in the capability - do we want to completely override existing PCI resources allocation mechanism being used in SeaBIOS, I mean, to assign capability values hardly, not taking into consideration any existing checks, or somehow make this process soft (not an obvious way, can lead to another big discussion)?
In other words, how do we plan to use IO/MEM/PREF limits provided in this capability in application to the PCIE Root Port, what result is this supposed to achieve?
Thanks, Marcel

First version of the series was implemented exactly like you propose, however Gerd preferred only one capability with multiple fields.
I personally like the simplicity of vendor cap per io/mem/bus, even if it is on the expense of the limited PCI Config space.
Personally I agree with Marcel since all this fields express reservations of some objects.
We need a consensus here :)
Absolutely :)
