Hi,
I have no comments about coding and architecture. It looks fine.
Only have a query about its use case..
"Any application intended to use message interrupt requires to know reg_num
because of struct mpic_msgr* mpic_msgr_get(unsigned int reg_num) API"
It will be good to search available unit internally and provide its pointer. It
will make application more flexible.
The problem is that you fundamentally cannot implement an allocator for
MSG registers if you're going to communicate with another kernel (how
would both kernels' allocators be synchronized?). So the message
register allocation must be decided at design time, not run time.
