    hw/pci: introduce PCI Expander Bridge (PXB) · 40d14bef
    Marcel Apfelbaum 提交于
    PXB is a "light-weight" host bridge whose purpose is to enable
    the main host bridge to support multiple PCI root buses
    for pc machines.
    
    As oposed to PCI-2-PCI bridge's secondary bus, PXB's bus
    is a primary bus and can be associated with a NUMA node
    (different from the main host bridge) allowing the guest OS
    to recognize the proximity of a pass-through device to
    other resources as RAM and CPUs.
    
    The PXB is composed from:
     - A primary PCI bus (can be associated with a NUMA node)
       Acts like a normal pci bus and from the functionality point
       of view is an "expansion" of the bus behind the
       main host bridge.
     - A pci-2-pci bridge behind the primary PCI bus where the actual
       devices will be attached.
     - A host-bridge PCI device
       Situated on the bus behind the main host bridge, allows
       the BIOS to configure the bus number and IO/mem resources.
       It does not have its own config/data register for configuration
       cycles, this being handled by the main host bridge.
    -  A host-bridge sysbus to comply with QEMU current design.
