It's a regression. update as below --- unsigned int irq_flag; irq_flag = PCI_IRQ_LEGACY; if (msi_enable == 1) irq_flag |= PCI_IRQ_MSI; nvec = pci_alloc_irq_vectors(pdev, 1, 1, irq_flag); > > > > + if (msi_enable == 1) > > + pr_info("arcmsr%d: msi enabled\n", acb->host->host_no); > > This printk could be improved.
