Hi 

My fpga device has multiple msi interrupts and I am trying to create an 
uio device for each msi interrupt. In the probe function of the pci 
device, I enable MSI for the pci device and allocate mem for uio info 
structures ( one for each msi ). First uio-info->irq is equal to the irq 
number in pdev->irq and It successfully creates /dev/uio-0 . For the 
second msi  i assign uio_info->irq = pdev->irq + 1 and different 
uio_info->name, but uio_register_device fails. When traced it fails at 
the devm_request_irq function. I am running on 3.19 kernel and after 
checking the latest 4.7 I noticed devm_request has changed to 
request_irq. I get the same error even with request_irq. 

- Does the uio framework support multiple uio's for the same pci device?
- if yes, is there something extra i need to do ?
 
Please let me know if I can provide any more information. Below is the 
log from my driver.
