David,

ENIC PMD needs info about BAR0 only, and vfio map routine puts it at index 0.  So, it didn’t pose trouble.

Regards,

Mmm, I am not that familiar with vfio code, but I would say that there is something buggy in pci_vfio_map_resource() when compared to pci_uio_map_resource().
Is not there a problem with finding the right index of dev->mem_resource[] array ?

Hi David,

During the testing, I saw that the length field was 0.  ENIC PMD validates the length of the BAR against a max value.
In order to get the length in the resource structure, I added this statement.

Thanks,

Not sure I understand why you need to overwrite the length value.
This is supposed to be initialised before by "generic" code.
This looks like a hack or a workaround.

Can you elaborate on this change ?
Thanks.
