ECAM standard and MCFG table are architecture independent and it makes sense to share common code across all architectures. Both are going to corresponding files - ecam.c and mcfg.c
While we are here, rename pci_parse_mcfg to acpi_parse_mcfg. We already have acpi_parse_mcfg prototype which is used nowhere. At the same time, we need pci_parse_mcfg been global so acpi_parse_mcfg can be used perfectly here.

Why can't we make use of the ECAM implementation used by pci-host-generic and drivers/pci/access.c?
We had that question when I had posted MMCFG patch set separately, please see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/11/492
Yes, but the real question is, why do we need to have PCI config space up and running before a bus struct is even created ? I think the reason is the PCI configuration address space format (ACPI 6.0, Table 5-27, page 108):
"PCI Configuration space addresses must be confined to devices on PCI Segment Group 0, bus 0. This restriction exists to accommodate access to fixed hardware prior to PCI bus enumeration".
On HW reduced platforms I do not even think this is required at all, we have to look into this to avoid code duplication that might well turn out useless.
This is only for the fixed hardware, which will be not available for ARM64 (reduced hardware mode), but in Generic Hardware Programming Model, we using OEM-provided ACPI Machine Language (AML) code to access generic hardware registers, this will be available for reduced hardware too.
So in ACPI spec, it says: (ACPI 6.0 page 66, last paragraph)
ACPI defines eight address spaces that may be accessed by generic hardware implementations. These include:
- System I/O space
- System memory space
- PCI configuration space
- Embedded controller space
- System Management Bus (SMBus) space
- CMOS
- PCI BAR Target
- IPMI space
So if any device using the PCI address space for control, such as a system reset control device, its address space can be reside in PCI configuration space (who can prevent a OEM do that crazy thing? :) ), and it should be accessible before the PCI bus is created.
Us, by changing attitude and questioning features whose usefulness is questionable. I will look into this and raise the point, I am not thrilled by the idea of adding another set of PCI accessor functions and drivers because we have to access a register through PCI before enumerating the bus (and on arm64 this is totally useless since we are not meant to support fixed HW anyway). Maybe we can make acpica code use a "special" stub (ACPI specific, PCI configuration space address space has restrictions anyway), I have to review this set in its entirety to see how to do that (and I would kindly ask you to do it too, before saying it is not possible to implement it).
Thanks, Lorenzo
