[SeaBIOS] [Qemu-devel] [PATCH RFC 00/17] implement multiple primary busses for pc machines

[Marcel Apfelbaum]

This series depends on:
 - [SeaBIOS] [PATCH 0/2] fw/pci: better support for multiple host bridges
   (https://www.mail-archive.com/seabios@seabios.org/msg07103.html)
   - Not yet final, comments need to be adressed

 - [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 00/47] ACPI refactoring: replace template patching with C ASL API
   (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-01/msg02895.html)

Reasoning:
We need multiple primary busess for a few reasons, the most important one
is to be able to associate a pass-trough device with a guest NUMA node.
The OS-es are able to associate a NUMA node only to a primary bus, not to
a specific PCI device or a pci-2-pci bridge.
PC machines support multiple NUMA nodes for CPUs and memory, however the IO
was not yet supported.

Series status:
The series is fully functional but tested only with Windows2012 server/Fedora 19 and e1000/virtio-net-pci.
You are more than welcome to try using:
   -device pxb-device,id=bridge1,bus_nr=4 -device e1000,bus=bridge1,addr=0x1 -bios <patched with the above series>

patch 1 adds the necessary acpi constructs based on Igor's series
patch 2-5 implements acpi code needed to expose the pxb's primary bus to guests
patch 6 separates the pci_bus code into a designated file
patch 7-11 handles the implicit assumptions in code that only one primary bus can exist
patch 12 handles the actual implementation of the PXB devices
patch 13-14 enables the device
patch 15 implements PXB map_irq function, (can be squashed into the actual PXB)
patch 16-17 hacks that need to be addressed before removing the "RFC" status.

Todo:
 - Solve the little hacks (patches 16/17)
 - Resend the SeaBios series after the comments are addressed
 - More testing with other OS-es and other pci devices
 - Implement the association of a root bus with a NUMA node (acpi proximity)
 - Think of migration implications and missing code (Ideas?)

Any comments will be welcomed and appreciated.
I will not be able to respond next week, but after that
I'll answer to all questions/comments.

Thanks,
Marcel
