virtio PMD assumes legacy device only supports PIO BAR resource. This is wrong.
As we need to create lots of devices, as PIO resource on x86 is very limited, 
we expose MMIO(memory IO) BAR.

Kernel supports both PIO and MMIO BAR for legacy virtio-pci device, and for all
other pci devices. This patchset handles different type of BAR in the similar way.

In previous implementation, under igb_uio driver we get PIO address from igb_uio
sysfs entry; with uio_pci_generic, we get PIO address from /proc/ioports for x86,
and for other ARCHs, we get PIO address from standard PCI sysfs entry.
For PIO/MMIO RW, there is different path for different drivers and arch.


All of the above is too much twisted.
This patchset unifies the way to get both PIO and MMIO address for different driver
and ARCHs, all from standard resource attr under pci sysfs. This is most generic.

We distinguish PIO and MMIO by their address like how kernel does. It is ugly but works.

v2 changes:
    - add more explanation in the commit message

v3 changes:
    - fix patch format issues

v4 changes:
    - fixes for RTE_KDRV_UIO_GENERIC -> RTE_PCI_KDRV_UIO_GENERIC

v5 changes:
    - split into three seperate patches

v6 changes:
    - change to DEBUG level for IO bar detection in pci_uio_ioport_map
    - rework the code in iobar branch
    - fixes commit message format issue
    - temporarily remove the 3rd patch for vfio path, leave it for future discusssion
    - rework against virtio_pmd_rework_v2


huawei.xhw (2):
  bus/pci: use PCI standard sysfs entry to get PIO address
  bus/pci: support MMIO in PCI ioport accessors

Hi ferruh and maxime:

v6 changes:

send v6. Let us discuss if merge in this or early next release.

Sorry that forget to reply to previous message id.

The -rc2 was released on the 29th, so I think it is too late for this
release.

As Ferruh suggested, he can pick it early for next release, so doing
that we'll be sure to have a wider testing.

Apart from that, I am fine with the series.

Thanks,
Maxime
