NAME¶
pci_alloc_irq_vectors - allocate multiple IRQs for a deviceSYNOPSIS¶
int
pci_alloc_irq_vectors(struct pci_dev * dev,
unsigned int min_vecs,
unsigned int max_vecs,
unsigned int flags);
ARGUMENTS¶
devPCI device to operate on
min_vecs
minimum number of vectors required (must be >=
1)
max_vecs
maximum (desired) number of vectors
flags
flags or quirks for the allocation
DESCRIPTION¶
Allocate up to max_vecs interrupt vectors for dev, using MSI-X or MSI vectors if available, and fall back to a single legacy vector if neither is available. Return the number of vectors allocated, (which might be smaller than max_vecs) if successful, or a negative error code on error. If less than min_vecs interrupt vectors are available for dev the function will fail with -ENOSPC. To get the Linux IRQ number used for a vector that can be passed to request_irq use the pci_irq_vector helper.COPYRIGHT¶
