[PATCH v4 9/9] PCI/MSI: Introduce pci_auto_enable_msi*() family helpers

From: Alexander Gordeev
Date: Mon Dec 16 2013 - 13:51:59 EST


Currently many device drivers need contiguously call functions
pci_enable_msix() for MSI-X or pci_enable_msi_block() for MSI
in a loop until success or failure. This update generalizes
this usage pattern and introduces pci_auto_enable_msi*() family
helpers.

As result, device drivers do not have to deal with tri-state
return values from pci_enable_msix() and pci_enable_msi_block()
functions directly and expected to have more clearer and straight
code.

So i.e. the request loop described in the documentation...

int foo_driver_enable_msix(struct foo_adapter *adapter,
int nvec)
{
while (nvec >= FOO_DRIVER_MINIMUM_NVEC) {
rc = pci_enable_msix(adapter->pdev,
adapter->msix_entries,
nvec);
if (rc > 0)
nvec = rc;
else
return rc;
}

return -ENOSPC;
}

...would turn into a single helper call....

rc = pci_auto_enable_msix_range(adapter->pdev,
adapter->msix_entries,
FOO_DRIVER_MINIMUM_NVEC,
nvec);

Device drivers with more specific requirements (i.e. a number of
MSI-Xs which is a multiple of a certain number within a specified
range) would still need to implement the loop using the two old
functions.
