What's the part that is getting you > hung up? Basically a name-space thing. The current code allocates 64 interrupts numbers for each PCI device, starting at 0. With GENERIC_HARDIRQS=y irq #0 is used for for external interrupts, irq #1 for I/O interrupts and irq #2 for adapter interrupts. The adapter interrupt handler for PCI has to scan the interrupt vectors and call generic_handle_irq for the MSI interrupts starting at irq #3. As I don't want to create a huge irq_desc array the number of allocatable interrupts for MSI will be limited and I can not simply assign 64 interrupts numbers to each device anymore. > I'd be happy to take a look if you want a hand. Thanks for the offer, I might take you up on it if I hit a real problem. -- blue skies, Martin.
