No, things like this are not OK in the drivers/base
Whatever this is doing needs to be properly architected in some
generic way.
Basically what I am trying to do here is to determine if the device is an
mdev device or not.
Why? mdev devices are virtual they don't have HW elements.
Hmm yeah exactly, since they are virtual, they do not have an associated IRQ
domain right? So they use the irq domain of the parent device..
The caller should use the concrete pci_device to allocate
platform_msi? What is preventing this?
hmmm do you mean to say all platform-msi adhere to the rules of a PCI
device?
I mean where a platform-msi can work should be defined by the arch,
and probably is related to things like having an irq_domain attached
So, like pci, drivers must only try to do platfor_msi stuff on
particular devices. eg on pci_device and platform_device types.
Even so it may not even work, but I can't think of any reason why it
should be made to work on a virtual device like mdev.
The use case if when we have a device assigned to a guest and we
want to allocate IMS(platform-msi) interrupts for that
guest-assigned device. Currently, this is abstracted through a mdev
interface.
And the mdev has the pci_device internally, so it should simply pass
that pci_device to the platform_msi machinery.
hmm i am not sure I follow this. mdev has a pci_device internally? which
struct are you referring to here?
mdev is merely a micropartitioned PCI device right, which no real PCI
resource backing. I am not how else we can find the IRQ domain
associated with an mdev..
This is no different from something like pci_iomap() which must be
used with the pci_device.
