This commit adds MSI to the Broadcom STB PCIe host controller. It does
not add MSIX since that functionality is not in the HW. The MSI
controller is physically located within the PCIe block, however, there
is no reason why the MSI controller could not be moved elsewhere in
the future.
Since the internal Brcmstb MSI controller is intertwined with the PCIe
controller, it is not its own platform device but rather part of the
PCIe platform device.

This could probably be depends on PCI_BRCMSTB, which would imply these
two conditions. PCI_BRCMSTB_MSI on its own is probably not very useful
without the parent RC driver.

Should we combine this file with the brcmstb-pci.o? There is probably no
functional difference, except that pci-brcmstb-msi.ko needs to be loaded
first, right?

If you look at the pci/host/Kconfig you will see that other drivers
also have a separate MSI config (eg iproc, altera, xgene) so there is
precedent. The reason that pci-brcmstb-msi.c is its own file is
because it depends on an irq function that is not exported. That is
why CONFIG_PCI_BRCMSTB_MSI is bool, and CONFIG_PCI_BRCMSTB is
tristate. -- Jim
There is precedent, but that doesn't mean I like it :)
I would strongly prefer one file per driver when possible.
Take iproc for example. iproc-msi.c is enabled by a Kconfig bool. It
contains a bunch of code with the only external entry points being
iproc_msi_init() and iproc_msi_exit(). These are only called via
iproc_pcie_bcma_probe() or iproc_pcie_pltfm_probe(), both of which are
tristate. So iproc-msi.c is only compiled if CONFIG_IPROC_BCMA or
CONFIG_IPROC_PLATFORM are enabled, but all that text is loaded even if
neither module is loaded, which seems suboptimal.
I don't care if you have several config options to enable the BCMA
probe and the platform probe (although these could probably be
replaced in the code by a simple "#ifdef CONFIG_BCMA" and "#ifdef
CONFIG_OF"), and making CONFIG_PCIE_IPROC tristate so it can be a
module makes sense. But I think it would be better to put all the
code in one file instead of five, and probably remove
CONFIG_PCIE_IPROC_MSI. Maybe this requires exporting some IRQ
function that currently isn't exported. But that seems like a simpler
solution than what we currently have.
Placing pcie-iproc-bcma.c in its own file is useful in being able to
read the code that is actually used. BCMA is really unnecessary if a
few platforms stopped using BCMA and declared everything via devicetree
or ACPI. Same with pcie-iproc-platform.c. Both keep the mess out of
pcie-iproc.c.
It looks like pcie-iproc-msi.c followed existing pci drivers in place.
So if msi was cleaned up through the entire pci drivers then yes it
would make sense to remove CONFIG_PCIE_IPROC_MSI and combine code in
pcie-iproc.c. But I think leaving the bcma and platform code in their
own files makes it easier for us to work with the code rather than
placing unused code in ifdefs in the same file.
