[PATCH v3 -tip/apic 2/2] x86/MSI: Conserve interrupt resources when using multiple-MSIs

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

 



Current multiple-MSI implementation does not take into account
actual number of requested MSIs and always rounds that number
to a closest power-of-two value. Yet, a number of MSIs a PCI
device could send (and therefore a number of messages a device
driver could request) may be a lesser power-of-two. As result,
resources allocated for extra MSIs just wasted.

This update takes advantage of 'msi_desc::nvec' field introduced
with generic MSI code to track number of requested and used MSIs.
As result, resources associated with interrupts are conserved.
Of those resources most noticeable are x86 interrupt vectors.

The initial version of this fix also consumed on IRTEs, but Jan
noticed that a malfunctioning PCI device might send a message
number it did not claim and thus refer an IRTE it does not own.
To avoid this security hole the old-way approach preserved and
as many IRTEs are reserved as the device could possibly send.
