[RFC PATCH] Let device drivers disable msi on shutdown

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

 



I'd like to do shutdowns asynchronously so I can shutdown multiple
devices in parallel, but the pci-driver disables interrupts after my
driver returns from its '.shutdown', though it needs to rely on these
interrupts in its asynchronously scheduled shutdown.

I tracked the reason for pci disabling msi to ...

|     pci/irq: let pci_device_shutdown to call pci_msi_shutdown v2

... because mptfusion doesn't disable msi in its shutdown path.

Any reason we can't let the drivers do this instead?

To provide context why I want to do this asynchronously, NVM-Express has
one PCI device per controller, of which there could be dozens in a system,
and each one may take many seconds (I've heard over ten in some cases)
to safely shutdown.

In this patch, mptfusion was compile tested only; I didn't observe any
adverse affects from running the pci portion.
