[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 5/7] spapr: Adjust placement of PCI host bridge to allow > 1TiB RAM

[David Gibson]

Currently the default PCI host bridge for the 'pseries' machine type is
constructed with its IO windows in the 1TiB..(1TiB + 64GiB) range in
guest memory space.  This means that if > 1TiB of guest RAM is specified,
the RAM will collide with the PCI IO windows, causing serious problems.

Problems won't be obvious until guest RAM goes a bit beyond 1TiB, because
there's a little unused space at the bottom of the area reserved for PCI,
but essentially this means that > 1TiB of RAM has never worked with the
pseries machine type.

This patch fixes this by altering the placement of PHBs on large-RAM VMs.
Instead of always placing the first PHB at 1TiB, it is placed at the next
1 TiB boundary after the maximum RAM address.

Technically, this changes behaviour in a migration-breaking way for
existing machines with > 1TiB maximum memory, but since having > 1 TiB
memory was broken anyway, this seems like a reasonable trade-off.
