QCA6391: failed to get 32 MSI vectors, only 1 available

QCA6391: failed to get 32 MSI vectors, only 1 available

[Devin Bayer]

Hello,

I am trying to get a QCA6391 card to work with the ath11k driver. It
recognizes the card since it has the same device ID as the QCA6390.
However it fails to initialize:

> [    4.241127] ath11k_pci 0000:03:00.0: WARNING: ath11k PCI support is experimental!
> [    4.258806] ath11k_pci 0000:03:00.0: BAR 0: assigned [mem 0xd0000000-0xd0ffffff 64bit]

> [    4.258990] ath11k_pci 0000:03:00.0: failed to enable msi: -22

I've tried a few different kernel versions up to 5.10-rc2 and they all behave the same.

Does anyone know if there is anything I can do to get this to work?

Thanks,
Devin

Note: I applied a small patch to fix the debug output so it reports
the correct number of available vectors:

There's a similar thread ongoing:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/ath11k/2020-October/000467.html

For me CONFIG_IRQ_REMAP helped, but it didn't help for Thomas. I suggest
to try that first anyway. I'll also include you to the other thread.
