Messages in this thread Patch in this message | | | From | John Garry <> | Subject | [PATCH RFC 3/4] kernel/resource: Make ioport_resource.start configurable | Date | Sat, 16 Jan 2021 00:58:48 +0800 |
| |
Make IO space base address to be configurable through IO_SPACE_BASE.
This will allow architectures which do not natively support IO ports - like arm64 - to harden against legacy ISA-based drivers which use hardcoded addresses to access IO ports.
Any attempts for these drivers to request a resource region will now fail for architectures with set IO_SPACE_BASE above legacy ISA IO port region (0xffff).
