MSI is a PCI thing, and GSI in the context of KVM's in-kernel irqchip is mostly a historic misnomer. It should have been called VIRQ (virtual IRQ), and I'm using this term now wherever possible. Any architecture that will also support in-kernel irqchips with line-based IRQs or irqfd will have to support this concept as well, thus will most probably use the generic code in kvm-all.c. Jan
