That non-zero vector is the first parameter to request_threaded_irq. If I put a printk in the loop installing the interrupt handler, I get: assigned_device_enable_host_msix entry 0, vector 44 assigned_device_enable_host_msix entry 0, vector 44 assigned_device_enable_host_msix entry 1, vector 45 assigned_device_enable_host_msix entry 0, vector 44 assigned_device_enable_host_msix entry 1, vector 45 assigned_device_enable_host_msix entry 2, vector 103 So we enable MSI-X with only one vector enabled, then a second vector gets enabled and we disable and re-enable with two, and so on with three. This is for an assigned e1000e device.
