The PCI bus specification (rev 3.0, 3.2.5 "Transaction Ordering and Posting") defines rules for PCI configuration space transactions ordering and posting, that state that configuration writes are non-posted transactions. This rule is reinforced by the ARM v8 architecture reference manual (issue A.k, Early Write Acknowledgment) that explicitly recommends that No Early Write Acknowledgment attribute should be used to map PCI configuration (write) transactions. Current ioremap interface on ARM64 implements mapping functions where the Early Write Acknowledgment hint is enabled, so they cannot be used to map PCI configuration space in a PCI specs compliant way. Implement an ARM64 specific pci_remap_cfgspace() interface that allows to map PCI config region with nGnRnE attributes, providing a remap function that complies with PCI specifications and the ARMv8 architecture reference manual recommendations.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
