Description
I was recently trying to get an Intel Arc GPU running on my Pi 5 (see geerlingguy/raspberry-pi-pcie-devices#510), but one notice I recieved while testing recommended enabling Resizable BAR, or ReBAR, in my BIOS:
[ 10.099135] xe 0000:03:00.0: [drm] Failed to resize BAR2 to 8192M (-ENOSPC). Consider enabling 'Resizable BAR' support in your BIOS
Obviously the Pi doesn't have a traditional BIOS, but I know at least on my Ampere-based arm64 workstations, their board firmware does support Resizable BAR, so it's definitely not a limitation of x64/amd64 vs arm64...
This may seem like a silly question, but with amdgpu
drivers working very reliably now (even with current-gen workstation cards), and Intel coming up, it would be nice at least for graphics drivers to have this feature, as the use is also attempted by the amdgpu
drivers.
I figure it can't hurt to ask, even if the answer is 'no' ;)
