So for the time being, until something major happens with the SBE's
firmware, I can go ahead and treat the lpc/xscom BAR as being hard-coded
addresses provided by a bootrom/hardware straps, gotcha. Thanks for all
the info, not sure if I've expressed it before but I really appreciate
that $big_company is taking time to respond to emails from 'just a guy'
who doesn't even own the hardware in question :).
On a related note, do you think its possible that IBM could release
LPC Host Controller datasheets? skiboot/hw/lpc.c has a bit of the reg
definitions present, but a unified guide like POWER9_PCIe_controller_v11_27JUL2018_pub.pdf
would be very useful imho.
Regards.
