#1157082 — Re: [PATCH v4 3/3] AHCI: Add generic MSI-X interrupt support to SATA PCI driver

Hello, Robert.

Maybe qualifying the subject that it's only for single IRQ would be a
good idea?

I thought I already asked but please separate out CAVIUM specific
changes from msix implementation and follow up with why cavium depends
on msix support.

Please add a comment describing that it's for single msix only and why
that'd be necessary for certain controllers.

Didn't I ask this one too the last time?  Can you explain why we can't
initialize single IRQ mode if nvec >= n_ports?

Please add a comment explaining why we're doing msix after msi.

Thanks.
