[PATCH] PCI: vmd: Remove MSI-X check on child devices

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Commit d7d8ab87e3e7 ("PCI: vmd: Switch to msi_create_parent_irq_domain()")
added a WARN_ON sanity check that child devices support MSI-X, because VMD
document says [1]:

    "Intel VMD only supports MSIx Interrupts from child devices and
    therefore the BIOS must enable PCIe Hot Plug and MSIx interrups [sic]."

However, on Ammar's machine, a PCIe port below VMD does not support MSI-X,
triggering this WARN_ON.

This inconsistency between the document and reality should be investigated
further. For now, remove the MSI-X check.

Allowing child devices without MSI-X despite what the document says does
sound suspicious, but that's what the driver had been doing before the
WARN_ON is added.
