Hi Tom.

A few MSI issues below. Thanks,

Alex

I think this is actually 10, 14, 20, or 24.

Is there any reason for mask bits to have virtualized writes? I don't
think we can support all 4 MSI capability sizes with this one table. We
probably need a 32bit and 64bit version, then we can drop the mask,
pending, and reserved fields via the length.

These aren't mutually exclusive features aiui.

This should probably be something like

len = 10;
if (flags & PCI_MSI_FLAGS_MASKBIT)
len += 10;
if (flags & PCI_MSI_FLAGS_64BIT) {
/* set 64bit permission table */
len += 4;
} else
/* set 32bit permission table */

Any intention of supporting MSI multiple message capability? If so,
this might turn into the same interface as MSIX.
