--- Comment #17 from John Baldwin <j...@freebsd.org> ---
I don't think the commenter in #3 understood what "broken" might mean in the
context of MSI or MSI-X, so I attempted to give more detail on how a particular
type of breakage might boot Linux ok but not FreeBSD (as was the case for Xen).
 However, if VMWare 6.0 is known to work we could alter the quirk to instead
use the version of VMWare (e.g. via SMBIOS strings or what not) instead of PCI
device IDs to know when to apply the quirk.

In terms of what VMware would investigate, I gave very specific details (do you
implement an MSI-X shadow table, etc.) that someone familiar with the
implementation would be able to investigate.  This is not "not caring", this is
"the best suggestions I can give of what to look for given what I know of how
FreeBSD's use of MSI-X differs from Linux assuming I don't get to look at the
sources myself".
