[PATCH 8/25] msi: Simplify the msi irq limit policy.

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

 



Currently we attempt to predict how many irqs we will be
able to allocate with msi using pci_vector_resources and some
complicated accounting, and then we only allow each device
as many irqs as we think are available on average.

Only the s2io driver even takes advantage of this feature
all other drivers have a fixed number of irqs they need and
bail if they can't get them.

pci_vector_resources is inaccurate if anyone ever frees an irq.
The whole implmentation is racy.  The current irq limit policy
does not appear to make sense with current drivers.  So I have
simplified things.  We can revisit this we we need a more sophisticated
policy.
