Subject: [PATCH v3 0/5] Retrieve MSI/MSIX cap struct for once on setup
Date: Fri,  5 Apr 2013 10:54:29 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1365130473-7413-1-git-send-email-shangw@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

While we setup MSI or MSI-X for specific PCI device, the address of
MSI or MSI-X capability structure is figured out from the config
space for multiple times. That's unnecessary and the patchset addresses
that. With the patchset applied, the latency for MSI or MSI-X setup
would be decreased hopefully.

v2 -> v3:
	* Remove checking on MSI/MSI-X capability offset in msi_set_enable()
	  and msix_set_enable(). Let the caller does the check
	* Using "u8" for MSI/MSI-X/PM capability
	* Let caller of pci_msi_check_device() checks MSI/MSI-X capability
	* Replace msi_control_reg() with "pos + PCI_MSI_FLAGS"
	* Merge [4/5] to [3/5]
v1 -> v2:
	* Cache the MSI/MSI-X capability offset to pci_dev directly according
	  to Bjorn's suggestion.
	* Rebase to 3.9.RC5
