'global' IRQ let's the controller driver to handle PCIe link specific events like Link up, Link down etc... They improve user experience like the driver can use those interrupts to start bus enumeration on its own. So breaking the ABI for good in this case. >Sorry, if your driver changes the ABI for this poor reason. > Is the above reasoning sufficient? - Mani >NAK. > >Best regards, >Krzysztof > மணிவண்ணன் சதாசிவம்
