Hello Heiko,

When I sent this patch, I had tested it against Frank's v8 series which adds
support for a PCIe endpoint triggering an interrupt (using GIC ITS) when the
host side writes to the PCI BAR that the endpoint has configured as doorbell:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20241116-ep-msi-v8-0-6f1f68ffd1bb@nxp.com/


However, it seems that in v10 of his series, he has changed it so that the
PCIe endpoint node now requires 'msi-map' instead of 'msi-parent'
(just like how it is done in the PCIe root complex node):

See:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/20241204-ep-msi-v10-0-87c378dbcd6d@nxp.com/

"""
Changes in v10:

[...]

- Use "msi-map" in pci ep controler node, instead of of msi-parent. first
argument is
	(func_no << 8 | vfunc_no)
"""


I didn't realize that DT property required for this feature could change so
drastically, since DT is supposed to describe hardware, and msi-parent made
perfect sense, since this property is usually the one used for devices
connected to a bus.
(msi-map is usually only used on the host bus adapter / root complex.)

Knowing what I now know, I should have waited until this feature had landed
before submitting this patch. I apologize for this.

Could you please drop this patch from your v6.14-armsoc/dts64 branch?

Or should I send a revert?

Once Frank's series has landed, I can resubmit a patch that adds whichever
DT property he finally ends up using.


Kind regards,
Niklas
