I bet that's on an AMD system with broken AGESA BIOS.... Good luck

Interesting. The behavior I am seeing doesn't seem to be consistent
with BIOS problem. I don't see these messages on 5.10-rc7. I started
seeing them on stable releases. It started right around 5.9.9 and
not present on 5.9.7.

I am bisecting to isolate. Same issue on all stables 5.4, 4.19 and
so on. If it is BIOS problem I would expect to see it on 5.10-rc7
and wouldn't have expected to start seeing it 5.9.9.

+ add Greg since I am talking about stable releases.

arch/x86/kernel/apic/msi.c: msi_set_affinity() says:


   * If the vector is in use then the installed device handler will
   * denote it as spurious which is no harm as this is a rare event
   * and interrupt handlers have to cope with spurious interrupts
   * anyway. If the vector is unused, then it is marked so it won't

   * common_interrupt().

common_interrupt() prints message if vector is unused: VECTOR_UNUSED

ack_APIC_irq();

if (desc == VECTOR_UNUSED) {
      pr_emerg_ratelimited("%s: %d.%u No irq handler for vector\n",
                            __func__, smp_processor_id(), vector);
}

Something wrong here?

No. It's perfectly correct in the MSI code. See further down.

        if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(this_cpu_read(vector_irq[cfg->vector])))
                this_cpu_write(vector_irq[cfg->vector], VECTOR_RETRIGGERED);


I am asking about inconsistent comments and the actual message as the
comment implies if vector is VECTOR_UNUSED state, this message won't
be triggered in common_interrupt. Based on that my read is the comment
might be wrong if the code is correct as you are saying.
