problem with attaching device to LPC bus

Hello
This is a newbie question: I am trying to write a simple DragonFly kernel
module for the gmux device that is attached to the LPC bus. Probing works
fine but I am stuck with the attachment routine: I can't allocate IO ports
for the device.
The device shows up in the device tree but is not attached:
---
# devinfo -rv | grep GMUX:
unknown pnpinfo _HID=APP000B _UID=0 at handle=\_SB_.PCI0.LPCB.GMUX
---
I looked up acpi tables (acpidump etc), the IO resources for GMUX seem to
be there:
--- ---
Scope (\_SB.PCI0.LPCB)
{
Device (GMUX)
{
Name (_HID, EisaId ("APP000B")) // _HID: Hardware ID
Name (_CID, "gmux") // _CID: Compatible ID
Name (_STA, 0x0B) // _STA: Status
Name (_CRS, ResourceTemplate () // _CRS: Current Resource
Settings
{
IO (Decode16,
0x0700, // Range Minimum
0x07FF, // Range Maximum
0x01, // Alignment
0xFF, // Length
)
})
--- ---
Also, looking devinfo -rv shows that the range 0x0700 to 0x07FF has been
set aside by the kernel:
---
# devinfo -u
. . .
I/O ports:
. . .
0x400 - 0x1fff (root0)
. . .
---
So am I right supposing that bus_alloc_resource_any should be able to claim
the range 0x700 to 0x7FF for the gmux device? At the moment, trying to
allocate IO ports with bus_alloc_resource returns NULL.
I wonder if anyone has suggestions about what has gone wrong or where to
dig further? I attach the code.
Thanks
Peeter
