pciexp_device: Handle unsupported requests in pciexp_get_ext_cap_offset()

Looking into pciexp_get_ext_cap_offset() it seems a little hackish
and prone to endless loops. Either it should limit the loop or bail
out when pci_read_config32() returns 0xffffffff, meaning "Unsupported
Requests".

This commit fixes an endless loop when the queried PCIe device is
downstream of a legacy PCI bus which doesn't support extended config
space, thus pci_read_config32() will return 0xffffffff, for example,
the combination below with CONFIG_PCIEXP_SUPPORT_RESIZABLE_BARS
enabled.

TEST=Build and boot to OS in ASUS P8C WS with the following
peripherals and CONFIG_PCIEXP_SUPPORT_RESIZABLE_BARS enabled:

00:1c.4 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C210 Series
	Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 5 [8086:1e18] (rev c4)

00:1c.4/00.0 SATA controller [0106]: Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
	88SE9170 PCIe 2.0 x1 2-port SATA 6 Gb/s Controller [1b4b:9170]
	(rev 13)

00:1e.0 PCI bridge [0604]: Intel Corporation 82801 PCI Bridge
	[8086:244e] (rev a4)

00:1e.0/00.0 PCI bridge [0604]: PLX Technology, Inc. PEX 8111 PCI
	Express-to-PCI Bridge [10b5:8111] (rev 21)

00:1e.0/03.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394) [0c00]: VIA Technologies, Inc.

with 00:1c.4/00.0 being successfully tuned with pciexp_tune_dev(), and
00: 1e.0/00.0/00.0 not tuned as expected.

coreboot README

coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload.

With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required.

coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS.

Payloads

After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot.

See https://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads.

Supported Hardware

coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards.

For details please consult:

Build Requirements

  • make
  • gcc / g++ Because Linux distribution compilers tend to use lots of patches. coreboot does lots of "unusual" things in its build system, some of which break due to those patches, sometimes by gcc aborting, sometimes - and that's worse - by generating broken object code. Two options: use our toolchain (eg. make crosstools-i386) or enable the ANY_TOOLCHAIN Kconfig option if you're feeling lucky (no support in this case).
  • iasl (for targets with ACPI support)
  • pkg-config
  • libssl-dev (openssl)

Optional:

  • gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets)
  • ncurses (for make menuconfig and make nconfig)
  • flex and bison (for regenerating parsers)

Building coreboot

Please consult https://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details.

Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware

If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU.

Please see https://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details.

Website and Mailing List

Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website:
