Subject: Incorrect size checks on mmap() for sysfs PCI resource files is
	breaking X?

Hi,

I just loaded 2.6.37-rc2 on my machines, and I noticed that X no longer starts.
Running an strace of the X server shows that it's doing this:

open("/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:07:00.0/resource0", O_RDWR) = 10
mmap(NULL, 16777216, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 10, 0) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)

This code seems to be asking for a shared read/write mapping of 16MB worth of
BAR0 starting at file offset 0, and letting the kernel assign a starting
address.  Here's the lspci dump:

Looking into dmesg, there's a complaint like so:

...with the following code in pci_mmap_fits:

	pci_start = (mmap_api == PCI_MMAP_SYSFS) ?
		pci_resource_start(pdev, resno) >> PAGE_SHIFT : 0;
        if (start >= pci_start && start < pci_start + size &&
                        start + nr <= pci_start + size)

It looks like the logic here is set up such that when the mmap call comes via
sysfs, the check in pci_mmap_fits wants vma->vm_pgoff to be between the
resource's start and end address, and the end of the vma to be no farther than
the end.  However, the sysfs PCI resource files always start at offset zero,
which means that this test always fails for programs that mmap the sysfs files.
Given the comment in the original commit
3b519e4ea618b6943a82931630872907f9ac2c2b, I _think_ the old procfs files
require that the file offset be equal to the resource's base address when
mmapping.

I think what we want here is for pci_start to be 0 when mmap_api ==
PCI_MMAP_PROCFS, though I'll leave it up to the author to ack me or prove me
wrong.

In any case, X is totally broken -- I can't get it started on Matrox, Radeon,
or Mach64 hardware, and I'd bet everything else is broken too.
