Subject: [PATCH v4] PCI: vmd: Disable MSI remap only for low MSI count
Date: Thu, 18 Apr 2024 11:31:21 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240418153121.291534-1-nirmal.patel@linux.intel.com> (raw)

VMD MSI remapping is disabled by default for all the CPUs with 28c0 VMD
deviceID. We used to disable remapping because drives supported more
vectors than the VMD so the performance was better without remapping.
Now with CPUs that support more than 64 (128 VMD MSIx vectors for gen5)
we no longer need to disable this feature.

Note, pci_msix_vec_count() failure is translated to ENODEV per typical
expectations that drivers may return ENODEV when some driver-known
fundamental detail of the device is missing.
