So you replaced a perfectly readable kernel message:

 -              pr_info("Not enabling interrupt remapping due to skipped IO-APIC 
setup\n");

... with an unreadable one:

 +              pr_info("Not init interrupt remapping due to skipped IO-APIC 
setup\n");

Why?

I am very sorry.

Because of my weak English skills :) . I am trying to improve my
English ability.


Also, the changelog is pretty much unreadable as well:

As the commit 2e63ad4bd5dd ("x86/apic: Do not init irq remapping
if ioapic is disabled") added the judgement of skipped IO APIC
setup at the beginning of enable_IR_x2apic(). It may be redundant
that we check it again when we try to enable the interrupt mapping.

So, remove the one in try_to_enable_IR() and refine them for
better readability.

I edited it to:

Thanks very much ! it became very clear.


   The following commit:

     2e63ad4bd5dd ("x86/apic: Do not init irq remapping if ioapic is disabled")

   ... added a check for skipped IO-APIC setup to enable_IR_x2apic(), but this

Could you tell me what is the meaning of "..." . How to use it?

   check is also duplicated in try_to_enable_IR() - and it will never succeed in
   calling irq_remapping_enable().

   Remove the whole irq_remapping_enable() complication: if the IO-APIC is
   disabled we cannot enable IRQ remapping.

And I restored the original pr_info() message as well.

Yes. Thanks!

Sincerely,

        Liyang




Thanks,

        Ingo
