MSI interrupts are never shared. So if pci_enable_msi() succeeds, you can be sure that the interrupts you get with that IRQ number are coming from your device. But using MSI does not work on all systems, so your driver needs to work with standard (possibly shared) INTx interrupts too. And you should probably provide at least a module flag to disable the use of MSI, to avoid problems on buggy systems. - R. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
