BTW, I noticed your email replies set "reply-to" to everyone in To and
Cc. The result (with Gmail) is my reply lists everyone twice (in both
To and Cc). "reply-to" is just supposed to be the 1 address you want
replies sent to instead of the "from" address.

It's still wrong as dtc only checks the unit-address is correct in a
few cases with known bus types.

It is not. First, that has a node for the PCI device (i.e. the
LAN966x). You do not. You only have a PCI-PCI bridge and that is
wrong.

BTW, you should Cc Herve and others that are working on this feature.
It is by no means fully sorted as you have found.

The 0 parent address here matches the unit-address, so all good in this case.

No. devfn is fixed unless you are plugging in a card in different
slots. The bus number is the part that is not known and assigned by
the OS, but you'll notice that is omitted.

In any case, the RP1 node should be generated, so its devfn is irrelevant.

Yes, but that would be in nodes underneath ranges. Above, it is the
parent bus we are talking about.

You are missing the point. A PCI-PCI bridge does not have a
simple-bus. However, I think it's just what you pasted here that's
wrong. From the looks of the RP1 driver and the overlay, it should be
correct.

It would also help if you dumped out what "lspci -tvnn" prints.

It's an ABI, so we really need to decide first.

Okay, but let's fix it with a test case. There's already a test case
for all this in the DT unittest which can be extended.
