[virtio-dev] [PATCH v2 4/5] virtio-mmio: Introduce MSI details

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

 



With VIRTIO_F_MMIO_MSI feature bit offered, the Message Signal
Interrupts (MSI) is supported as first priority. For any reason it
fails to use MSI, it need use the single dedicated interrupt as before.

For MSI vectors and events mapping relationship, introduce in next patch.
