Subject: [PATCH v3 11/12] [media] ddbridge: Kconfig option to control the MSI modparam default
Date: Wed, 9 Aug 2017 22:31:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170809203128.31476-12-d.scheller.oss@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170809203128.31476-1-d.scheller.oss@gmail.com>
From: Daniel Scheller <d.scheller@gmx.net>
It is known that MSI interrupts - while working quite well so far - can
still cause issues on some hardware platforms (causing I2C timeouts due
to unhandled interrupts). The msi variable/option is set to 1 by default.
So, add a Kconfig option prefixed with "EXPERIMENTAL" that will control
the default value of that modparam, defaulting to off for a better
user experience and (guaranteed) stable operation "per default".
