Thus we can enable MSI-X interrupts. It is the controller driver that defines the MSI-X data field yes, what I don't get is why we have to add this comment in the commit log. Basically Aardvark can support MSI-X up to 32 MSI-X vectors and you are enabling them with this patch. Is there anything *else* I am missing wrt 16-bit/32-bit data fields that we need to know ? > Testing proves that kernel can correctly receive MSI-X interrupts from > PCIe cards which supports both MSI and MSI-X interrupts. I don't understand what you want to convey with this commit log. To me, the whole comment does not add anything (if I understood it), please let me know what you want to express with it. To me this patch enables MSI-X support because the HW can support them, that's it.
