HP ProLiant systems DL385 G2 and DL585 G2 need pci=bfsort to enumerate PCI
devices in the expected order.
Matt sayeth:
biosdevname is a userspace app I wrote to help solve this so we don't need
to patch the kernel for future systems. It's not integrated into any
distributions properly yet, but is included in openSUSE 10.3 and Fedora 8
for people who want to download and install it there. It acts as a udev
helper.
For the time being, patching the kernel is necessary. I really hope
biosdevname eliminates that need in future distributions.

Use _CRS for PCI resource allocation
This patch resolves an issue where incorrect PCI memory and i/o ranges
are being assigned to hotplugged PCI devices on some IBM systems. The
resource mis-allocation not only makes the PCI device unuseable but
often makes the entire system unuseable due to resulting machine checks.
The hotplug capable PCI slots on the affected systems are not located
under a standard P2P bridge but are instead located under PCI root
bridges or subtractive decode P2P bridges. For example, the IBM x3850
contains 2 hotplug capable PCI-X slots and 4 hotplug capable PCIe slots
with the PCI-X slots each located under a PCI root bridge and the PCIe
slots each located under a subtractive decode P2P bridge.
The current i386/x86_64 PCI resource allocation code does not use _CRS
returned resource information. No other resource information source is
available for slots that are not below a standard P2P bridge so
incorrect ranges are being allocated from e820 hole causing the bad
result.
This patch causes the kernel to use _CRS returned resource info. It is
roughly based on a change provided by Matthew Wilcox for the ia64 kernel
in 2005. Due to possible buggy BIOS factor and possible yet to be
discovered kernel issues the function is disabled by default and can be
enabled with pci=use_crs.
