Hi all,

At least for my hardware (MCP55), the sata controller supports MSI
and it seems that turning it on is as simple as inserting the call
to pci_enable_msi - after that it Just Works(tm).

Are there any gotchas that I'm missing? Would a patch to do this
be accepted?

Don't even dream about it for now.  The driver is unstable enough
without throwing MSI into the works.

Oh, wait a minute.. I misread "sata_nv" as "sata_mv" there.

FWIW: Marvell says they run with MSI enabled on 6440 (mvsas) in their vendor driver, but not on any of the 50xx and 60xx variants supported by sata_mv.

Maybe that's changed in the past year with 7042, I dunno. But that's the latest info I have.
