====================
QEMU PCI test device
====================
``pci-testdev`` is a device used for testing low level IO.
The device implements up to three BARs: BAR0, BAR1 and BAR2.
Each of BAR 0+1 can be memory or IO. Guests must detect
BAR types and act accordingly.
BAR 0+1 size is up to 4K bytes each.
BAR 0+1 starts with the following header:
.. code-block:: c
typedef struct PCITestDevHdr {
uint8_t test; /* write-only, starts a given test number */
uint8_t width_type; /*
* read-only, type and width of access for a given test.
* 1,2,4 for byte,word or long write.
* any other value if test not supported on this BAR
*/
uint8_t pad0[2];
uint32_t offset; /* read-only, offset in this BAR for a given test */
uint32_t data; /* read-only, data to use for a given test */
uint32_t count; /* for debugging. number of writes detected. */
uint8_t name[]; /* for debugging. 0-terminated ASCII string. */
} PCITestDevHdr;
All registers are little endian.
The device is expected to always implement tests 0 to N on each BAR, and to add new
tests with higher numbers. In this way a guest can scan test numbers until it
detects an access type that it does not support on this BAR, then stop.
BAR2 is a 64bit memory BAR, without backing storage. It is disabled
by default and can be enabled using the ``membar=<size>`` property. This
can be used to test whether guests handle PCI BARs of a specific
(possibly quite large) size correctly.
