Hi Christoph

Many thanks for your comments

Ok agreed

Maybe pcie_port_enable_irq_vec ?

Sorry about this; I'll fix it in V2

Yes you're right, thanks for spotting this

Yep, thanks

I think we can reach that call if both MSI and MSIx fails and then it
will fall back to legacy IRQ. However you are right in saying that the
code should be reworked. Now it would be:

static int pcie_init_service_irqs(struct pci_dev *dev, int *irqs, int mask)
{
	int ret, i;

	for (i = 0; i < PCIE_PORT_DEVICE_MAXSERVICES; i++)
		irqs[i] = -1;

	/*
	 * Make sure MSI can be used for PCIe PME or hotplug. otherwise we have to
	 * use INTx or other interrupts, e.g. system shared interrupt.
	 */
	if (!((mask & PCIE_PORT_SERVICE_PME) && pcie_pme_no_msi()) &&
	    !((mask & PCIE_PORT_SERVICE_HP) && pciehp_no_msi()))
		/* Try to use MSI-X or MSI if supported */
		if (!pcie_port_enable_msix_or_msi(dev, irqs, mask))
			return 0;

	/* fall back to legacy IRQ */
	ret = pci_alloc_irq_vectors(dev, 1, 1, PCI_IRQ_LEGACY);
	if (ret < 0)
		return -ENODEV;

	for (i = 0; i < PCIE_PORT_DEVICE_MAXSERVICES; i++) {
		if (i != PCIE_PORT_SERVICE_VC_SHIFT)
			irqs[i] = pci_irq_vector(dev, 0);
	}

	return 0;
}

What do you think?

Again many thanks
