Hi, UEFI already has the 0 based PIO in place, so in theory its broken with the current DT. Put another way, I suspect that there are few (if any) juno's running out there, making use of PCIe PIO. Most of the boards people are likely to plug into the machine don't use PIO. IMPORTANT NOTICE: The contents of this email and any attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.
