1 pci-test is a device used for testing low level IO
3 device implements up to three BARs: BAR0, BAR1 and BAR2.
4 Each of BAR 0+1 can be memory or IO. Guests must detect
5 BAR types and act accordingly.
7 BAR 0+1 size is up to 4K bytes each.
8 BAR 0+1 starts with the following header:
10 typedef struct PCITestDevHdr {
11 uint8_t test; <- write-only, starts a given test number
12 uint8_t width_type; <- read-only, type and width of access for a given test.
13 1,2,4 for byte,word or long write.
14 any other value if test not supported on this BAR
16 uint32_t offset; <- read-only, offset in this BAR for a given test
17 uint32_t data; <- read-only, data to use for a given test
18 uint32_t count; <- for debugging. number of writes detected.
19 uint8_t name[]; <- for debugging. 0-terminated ASCII string.
22 All registers are little endian.
24 device is expected to always implement tests 0 to N on each BAR, and to add new
25 tests with higher numbers. In this way a guest can scan test numbers until it
26 detects an access type that it does not support on this BAR, then stop.
28 BAR2 is a 64bit memory bar, without backing storage. It is disabled
29 by default and can be enabled using the membar=<size> property. This
30 can be used to test whether guests handle pci bars of a specific
31 (possibly quite large) size correctly.
