RE: below 1M BAR behind a PCI-PCI bridge



You can grant the below 1MB request behind a generic bridge, but the bridge
will not be able to pass up-stream (primary side) transactions below 1MB to
the down-stream (secondary side) device(s) because a generic P2P bridge does
not support a memory window below 1MB.    However, you should be able to
pass transactions from the secondary side to the primary side.
