powerpc/pseries: Fix MSI-X allocation failure when quota is exceeded
Nilay reported that since commit
daaa574aba6f ("powerpc/pseries/msi: Switch
to msi_create_parent_irq_domain()"), the NVMe driver cannot enable MSI-X
when the device's MSI-X table size is larger than the firmware's MSI quota
for the device.
This is because the commit changes how rtas_prepare_msi_irqs() is called:
- Before, it is called when interrupts are allocated at the global
interrupt domain with nvec_in being the number of allocated interrupts.
rtas_prepare_msi_irqs() can return a positive number and the allocation
will be retried.
- Now, it is called at the creation of per-device interrupt domain with
nvec_in being the number of interrupts that the device supports. If
rtas_prepare_msi_irqs() returns positive, domain creation just fails.
For Nilay's NVMe driver case, rtas_prepare_msi_irqs() returns a positive
number (the quota). This causes per-device interrupt domain creation to
fail and thus the NVMe driver cannot enable MSI-X.
Rework to make this scenario works again:
- pseries_msi_ops_prepare() only prepares as many interrupts as the quota
permit.
- pseries_irq_domain_alloc() fails if the device's quota is exceeded.
Now, if the quota is exceeded, pseries_msi_ops_prepare() will only prepare
as allowed by the quota. If device drivers attempt to allocate more
interrupts than the quota permits, pseries_irq_domain_alloc() will return
an error code and msi_handle_pci_fail() will allow device drivers a retry.
