* Add a new bus method, BUS_ADJUST_RESOURCE() that is intended to be ajhb2011-04-294-0/+104
| | | | | | | wrapper around rman_adjust_resource(). Include a generic implementation, bus_generic_adjust_resource() which passes the request up to the parent bus. There is currently no default implementation. A bus_adjust_resource() wrapper is provided for use in drivers.
* Extend the rman(9) API to support altering an existing resource.jhb2011-04-292-5/+127
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Specifically, these changes allow a resource to back a relocatable and resizable resource such as the I/O window decoders in PCI-PCI bridges. - rman_adjust_resource() can adjust the start and end address of an existing resource. It only succeeds if the newly requested address space is already free. It also supports shrinking a resource in which case the freed space will be marked unallocated in the rman. - rman_first_free_region() and rman_last_free_region() return the start and end addresses for the first or last unallocated region in an rman, respectively. This can be used to determine by how much the resource backing an rman must be adjusted to accomodate an allocation request that does not fit into the existing rman. While here, document the rm_start and rm_end fields in struct rman, rman_is_region_manager(), the bound argument to rman_reserve_resource_bound(), and rman_init_from_resource().
