virtio_pci irq handling cleanups
Hi Michael,
this series contains a couple cleanups for the virtio_pci interrupt
handling code, including a switch to the new pci_irq_alloc_vectors
helper. All these are in preparation of taking advantage of the new
PCI layer / core IRQ interrupt affinity handling, for which I will
send out a series once this and some core interrupt handling changes
are in.

[PATCH 0/11] RFC: PCI using capabilitities
Here's the patch series I ended up with. I haven't coded up the QEMU
side yet, so no idea if the new driver works.
Questions:
(1) Do we win from separating ISR, NOTIFY and COMMON?
(2) I used a "u8 bar"; should I use a bir and pack it instead? BIR
seems a little obscure (noone else in the kernel source seems to
refer to it).
Cheers,
Rusty.

automatic IRQ affinity for virtio
Hi Michael,
this series contains a couple cleanups for the virtio_pci interrupt
handling code, including a switch to the new pci_irq_alloc_vectors
helper, and support for automatic affinity by the PCI layer if the
consumers ask for it. It then converts over virtio_blk to use this
functionality so that it's blk-mq queues are aligned to the MSI-X
vector routing. I have a similar patch in the

automatic IRQ affinity for virtio V2
Hi Michael, hi Jason,
This patches applies a few cleanups to the virtio PCI interrupt handling
code, and then converts the virtio PCI code to use the automatic MSI-X
vectors spreading, as well as using the information in virtio-blk
and virtio-scsi to automatically align the blk-mq queues to the MSI-X
vectors.
Changes since V1:
- dropped the patches already merged for 4.10-rc
- new patch to

[PATCH 0/9] virtio_pci: split out legacy device support
virtio 1.0 support for virtio-pci isn't ready yet.
Therefore, this patchset doesn't make any functional changes.
Instead, this simply refactors virtio-pci, splitting legacy
device support code out to a separate file: virtio_pci_legacy.c
For virtio 1.0, all that's left is to add virtio_pci_modern.c

[PATCHv4 2/2] virtio: refactor find_vqs
This refactors find_vqs, making it more readable and robust, and fixing
two regressions from 2.6.30:
- double free_irq causing BUG_ON on device removal
- probe failure when vq can't be assigned to msi-x vector
(reported on old host kernels)
An older version of this patch was tested by Amit Shah.

[PATCH 3/3] virtio_pci: optional MSI-X support
This implements optional MSI-X support in virtio_pci.
MSI-X is used whenever the host supports at least 2 MSI-X
vectors: 1 for configuration changes and 1 for virtqueues.
Per-virtqueue vectors are allocated if enough vectors
available.

[PATCH RFC] virtio-pci: share config interrupt between virtio devices
One VM only has 128 msix interrupt, virtio-config interrupt
has less workload. This patch shares one normal interrupt
for configuration between virtio devices.
