==================== 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=`` property. This can be used to test whether guests handle PCI BARs of a specific (possibly quite large) size correctly.
