It would be nice if v4.20 was released without broken MSIs in this driver. Personally I get confused just by looking at this mail thread. I see 3 patches from Marc and a fix-up from Marc, but I also see a patch from Gustavo, and another patch from Trent. Is seems like Lorenzo has a branch with Marc's 3 patches + Marc's fix-up folded in here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lpieralisi/pci.git/log/?h=test%2Fpci-dwc-msi Perhaps it would be a good idea to send a V2, with proper Fixes-tags, just so that people would know what to test, so that we can start getting those Tested-by tags. Stan, may I ask exactly what patches you tested? Kind regards, Niklas
