Just an update, i found the issue which was actually to wake up the HW before doing stop/restart (using pm_runtime_get_sync), also handled protecting from concurrent snd_pcm_ioctls accessing the registers while the BAR is unmapped. Can go through BAR move while aplay is running now.
Once again, would be happy for any comments on the code - https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https:%2F%2Fcgit.freedes...
Hrm, this kind of change is a bit scary; we have some mechanism to stop the HD-audio hardware operation (e.g. for loading the DSP for CA0132 codec), but it's pretty hackish and error-prone.
At least I didn't have issue with HW stopping, the problem is with unampping hdac_bus->remap_addr - as long as it's not iorampped back no code besides the PCI BAR move should run at all as any register access from this address will cause fatal page fault. I took care of most of the IOCTls i think, the interrupts are disabled in azx_stop_chip but I am probably still missing some stuff like some background work items or other IOCTls code path.
Do we really need the BAR remap while operating the sound streaming? That is, can't we simply refuse the remap if it's in operation? If it can be refused, we may avoid a big locking or such.
Problem here is that this feature is for the sake of hot-plug of a device, this supposed to give enough MMIO space to place all the BARs of newly plugging in device. Refusing to move BARs because there is some app using the sound card on the background might then lead to failure of plugging in the new device and this doesn't sound as a reasonable behavior to me. Also note that the lock's impact is minimal as it's read side lock only in the IOCTLs an so as long as hot plug not taking place it has no impact.

Hi, I am working on adding AMD related drivers support for PCIe BARs move feature developed by Sergei (https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flinuxplumb...).
His feature is still not upstream, all his code and mine on top can be seen here - https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https:%2F%2Fcgit.freedes...
I did basic implementation fro amdgpu driver and now I am doing the same for snd_hda_intel to support our on GPU Azalia audio chips. This relevant commit is here - https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https:%2F%2Fcgit.freedes...
Any driver that wants to support movable BARs needs to implement rescan_prepare, rescan_done and bar_fixed callbacks where rescan_prepare needs to stop HW/SW and unamp all MMIO mappings and rescan_done needs to ioremap the BAR from it's new MMIO location and restart HW/SW.
I am able currently to trigger BARs move by sysfs using "/sys/bus/pci/rescan" and the driver will go through the sequence I described above without hangs. Problem is that after this when i try to use mplayer I am getting following errors:

I know it has to do with the move of BAR's MMIO address because when i disallow BAR migration by returning true from bar_fixed callback I have no such errors and mplayer works fine.
I enabled MMIO trace and didn't see that post BAR move there is a wrong MMIO access - all of them are from the new MMIO base offset - 0xfcd80000 (trace attached including mmio trace and dmesg)
I would be happy for any idea on this and any comment on the correctness of my sequence in the code
