SubjectRe: [PATCH 2/7] KVM: kvm_host: add kvm_extended_msi
From

Hi Eric,

just played a bit with the code and I could make things easier by the
following change:

I got rid of this structure at all, instead using:

@@ -317,6 +324,7 @@ struct kvm_kernel_irq_routing_entry {
} irqchip;
- struct msi_msg msi;
+ struct {
+ struct msi_msg msi;
+ u32 devid;
+ };
struct kvm_s390_adapter_int adapter;
};
struct hlist_node link;
};
This re-uses the existing MSI fields in struct msi_msg, so all the extra
code you added in the next patches to set address and data could be
skipped. If needed we can add a flags field here as well to avoid that
extra type.
That simplified a lot for me.

Cheers,
André
