I didn't like the pci_read_irq() change because the PCI spec doesn't
say anything about any PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE values being invalid.
I like this solution better, but I still don't quite understand it.
We have the following code in acpi_pci_irq_enable(). We have
previously tried to look up "gsi," but the _PRT doesn't mention this
device, so we have "gsi == -1" at this point:
/*
* No IRQ known to the ACPI subsystem - maybe the BIOS /
* driver reported one, then use it. Exit in any case.
*/
if (gsi < 0) {
u32 dev_gsi;
/* Interrupt Line values above 0xF are forbidden */
if (dev->irq > 0 && (dev->irq <= 0xF) &&
(acpi_isa_irq_to_gsi(dev->irq, &dev_gsi) == 0)) {
dev_warn(&dev->dev, "PCI INT %c: no GSI -
using ISA IRQ %d\n",
pin_name(pin), dev->irq);
acpi_register_gsi(&dev->dev, dev_gsi,
ACPI_LEVEL_SENSITIVE,
ACPI_ACTIVE_LOW);
} else {
dev_warn(&dev->dev, "PCI INT %c: no GSI\n",
pin_name(pin));
}
return 0;
}
1) I don't know where the restriction of 0x1-0xF came from.
Presumably this value of dev->irq came from PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE, and I
don't know what forbids values > 0xF. The test was added by Andy
Grover in the attached commit. This is ancient history; probably Andy
doesn't remember either :)
2) The proposed change (setting "dev->irq = 0" when we didn't find
anything in the _PRT and dev->irq > 0xF) throws away some information,
and I fear it could break systems. For example, what would happen if
a system put an IOAPIC pin number in a device's PCI_INTERRUPT_LINE and
omitted the device from _PRT? Is it possible the device would still
work as-is (with acpi_pci_irq_enable() doing nothing), but would break
if we set dev->irq = 0?
3) I don't understand why the xhci init fails in the first place. It
looks like the "request interrupt 255 failed" message is from
xhci_try_enable_msi(), but that function tries to enable MSI-X, then
MSI, then falls back to legacy interrupts, where we get the error.
But the device supports MSI, so I don't know why we even fall back to
trying legacy interrupts. Hannes, do you have any insight into that?
Obviously I'm missing something here.
