If a new PCIe device has been hot-plugged between the two active ones
without big enough gap between their BARs, these BARs should be moved
if their drivers support this feature. The drivers should be notified
and paused during the procedure:

1)                 dev 8 (new)
                       |
                       v
.. |  dev 3  |  dev 3  |  dev 5  |  dev 7  |
.. |  BAR 0  |  BAR 1  |  BAR 0  |  BAR 0  |

2)                             dev 8
                                 |
                                 v
.. |  dev 3  |  dev 3  | -->           --> |  dev 5  |  dev 7  |
.. |  BAR 0  |  BAR 1  | -->           --> |  BAR 0  |  BAR 0  |

 3)

.. |  dev 3  |  dev 3  |  dev 8  |  dev 8  |  dev 5  |  dev 7  |
.. |  BAR 0  |  BAR 1  |  BAR 0  |  BAR 1  |  BAR 0  |  BAR 0  |

Thus, prior reservation of memory regions by BIOS/bootloader/firmware
is not required anymore for the PCIe hotplug.

The PCI_MOVABLE_BARS flag is set by the platform is this feature is
supported and tested, but can be overridden by the following command
line option:
    pcie_movable_bars={ off | force }

Just to speak precisely here, a hot-added device is not "between" two
active ones because the new device has zeros in its BARs.

BARs from different devices can be interleaved arbitrarily, subject to
bridge window constraints, so we can really only speak about a *BAR*
(not the entire device) being between two other BARs.

Also, I don't think there's anything here that is PCIe-specific, so we
should talk about "PCI", not "PCIe".

A chicken switch to turn this functionality off is OK, but I think it
should be enabled by default.  There isn't anything about this that's
platform-specific, is there?

I agree, that should be rephrased. This patchset intends to solve the problem when a
bridge window is not big enough (or fragmented too much) to fit new BARs, and it can't be
expanded enough because blocked by "neighboring" BARs.

I'm a bit afraid to suppose that; I was once surprised that bus numbers can't be assigned
arbitrarily on some platforms [1], so probably there are some similar restrictions on BARs
too.

Was going to propose adding pci_add_flags(PCI_MOVABLE_BARS) into arch/.../init.c for
tested platforms, so there will be less upset people with their BARs suddenly broken. But
this logic can be reversed: pci_clear_flags(PCI_MOVABLE_BARS) for platforms where movable
BARs can't work.
