[PATCH v20 4/4] PCI/MSI: Enable memory decoding before restoring MSI-X messages

From: Farhan Ali

Date: Mon Jun 22 2026 - 13:19:31 EST


The current MSI-X restoration path assumes the Command register Memory bit
is enabled when writing MSI-X messages. But its possible the last saved and
restored state of device may not have the Memory bit enabled, even if a
device driver later enables Memory bit and MSI-X. Attempting to access
Memory space without Memory bit enabled can lead to Unsupported Request
(UR) from the device. Fix this by enabling Memory bit and restore
it afterwards.
