Subject: [PATCH] x86/IRQ: bump max number of guests for a shared IRQ to 31
Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2020 23:59:37 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1606780777-30718-1-git-send-email-igor.druzhinin@citrix.com> (raw)

Current limit of 7 is too restrictive for modern systems where one GSI
could be shared by potentially many PCI INTx sources where each of them
corresponds to a device passed through to its own guest. Some systems do not
apply due dilligence in swizzling INTx links in case e.g. INTA is declared as
interrupt pin for the majority of PCI devices behind a single router,
resulting in overuse of a GSI.

If people think that would make sense - I can rework the array to a list of
domain pointers to avoid the limit.
