Thanks. > Not sure I understand the apparent confusion here..... It's harmless, just noisy. In the 'Unable to allocate' case, it'll fall back to allocating non-MSI interrupts. For the majority of users, MSI will make absolutely no discernable difference. The patch referenced in the changelog inverts the usual logic the kernel uses (Enable MSI by default, and offer 'pci=nomsi') to disable by default, and offer with pci=msi for the minority cases where it may be necessary. This was done because the MSI code is still evolving at a rate where breakage occurs frequently, even when drivers aren't using it.
