Hostbridge emulation
####################
Overview
********
Hostbridge emulation is based on PCI emulation. However hostbridge emulation only sets PCI configuration space. Device model set the PCI configuration space for hostbridge in Service VM, then expose to User VM to detect the PCI hostbridge.
PCI Host Bridge and hierarchy
*****************************
There is PCI host bridge emulation in DM. The bus hierarchy is determined by ``acrn-dm`` command line input. Using this command line, as an example::
acrn-dm -A -m $mem_size -s 0:0,hostbridge \
-s 2,pci-gvt -G "$2" \
-s 5,virtio-console,@stdio:stdio_port \
-s 6,virtio-hyper_dmabuf \
-s 3,virtio-blk,/home/clear/uos/uos.img \
-s 4,virtio-net,tap0 \
-s 7,virtio-rnd \
--ovmf /usr/share/acrn/bios/OVMF.fd \
$pm_channel $pm_by_vuart $pm_vuart_node \
$logger_setting \
--mac_seed $mac_seed \
$vm_name
the bus hierarchy would be:
.. code-block:: console
# lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Network Appliance Corporation Device 1275
00:01.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82371SB PIIX3 ISA [Natoma/Triton II]
00:03.0 SCSI storage controller: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio block device
00:05.0 Serial controller: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio console
00:06.0 RAM memory: Intel Corporation Device 8606
00:08.0 Network and computing encryption device: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio RNG
00:09.0 Ethernet controller: Red Hat, Inc. Virtio network device
.. note:: For Clear Linux OS, the ``lspci`` command can be installed from the ``sysadmin-basic`` bundle.
