This silently was working for many years and stopped working on Niagara-T3 machines. We need to set the MSIQ to VALID before we can set it's state to IDLE. On Niagara-T3, setting the state to IDLE first was causing HV_EINVAL errors. The hypervisor documentation says, rather ambiguously, that the MSIQ must be "initialized" before one can set the state. I previously understood this to mean merely that a successful setconf() operation has been performed on the MSIQ, which we have done at this point. But it seems to also mean that it has been set VALID too. Signed-off-by: David S.
