[Frank Li] I see, just want to confirm msi_data->msi_domain should be correct here?
It should be leaf of irq hierarchy tree.

[Frank Li] I understand affinity can't be changed.
But system use set affinity to write msi msg.
The call stack as
[ 25.508229] epf_ntb_write_msi_msg+0x78/0x90
[ 25.512512] platform_msi_write_msg+0x2c/0x38
[ 25.516882] msi_domain_set_affinity+0xb0/0xc0
[ 25.521330] irq_do_set_affinity+0x174/0x220
[ 25.525604] irq_setup_affinity+0xe0/0x188
[ 25.529713] irq_startup+0x88/0x160
[ 25.533214] __setup_irq+0x6c8/0x768
I have not found good place to hook a function to write msi msg.
int irq_startup(struct irq_desc *desc, bool resend, bool force)
{
struct irq_data *d = irq_desc_get_irq_data(desc);
struct cpumask *aff = irq_data_get_affinity_mask(d);
int ret = 0;
desc->depth = 0;
if (irqd_is_started(d)) {
irq_enable(desc);
} else {
switch (__irq_startup_managed(desc, aff, force)) {
case IRQ_STARTUP_NORMAL:
if (d->chip->flags & IRQCHIP_AFFINITY_PRE_STARTUP)
irq_setup_affinity(desc);
ret = __irq_startup(desc);
if (!(d->chip->flags & IRQCHIP_AFFINITY_PRE_STARTUP))
irq_setup_affinity(desc);
break;
case IRQ_STARTUP_MANAGED:
irq_do_set_affinity(d, aff, false);
ret = __irq_startup(desc);
break;
case IRQ_STARTUP_ABORT:
irqd_set_managed_shutdown(d);
return 0;
}
}
if (resend)
check_irq_resend(desc, false);
return ret;
}
