On UEFI systems, the PCI subsystem is enumerated by the firmware, and if a graphical framebuffer is exposed via a PCI device, its base address and size are exposed to the OS via the Graphics Output Protocol (GOP). On arm64 PCI systems, the entire PCI hierarchy is reconfigured from scratch at boot. This may result in the GOP framebuffer address to become stale, if the BAR covering the framebuffer is modified. This will cause the framebuffer to become unresponsive, and may in some cases result in unpredictable behavior if the range is reassigned to another device. So add a non-x86 quirk to the EFI fb driver to find the BAR associated with the GOP base address, and claim the BAR resource so that the PCI core will not move it.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
