Thanks, that's the simple answer I was hoping for.  Obviously if some
chipsets only do MSI then you need the MSI code in addition to the
MSI-X code.

In a case where you have a device that which supports MSI-X (multiple
interrupts) but the device in default is in MSI mode, ie some
configuration change is needed on the device. In such a case, how
would one handle between MSI-X and MSI ?

ie the device initially doesn't support MSI-X
