NVME PCI driver question

Dear maintainers of NVME driver
I have a question about NVME driver.
In drivers/nvme/host/pci.c, function: nvme_dev_map calls pci_enable_msix, what if  a device just supports MSI but doesn't support MSIX? in such logic, if   pci_enable_msix failed,

It sounds like you're not using the most recent version of the driver.

The function you're referring sets up early initialisation and would
use MSI-x if INTx was not available. This version of the driver would
also poll for completions if INTx wasn't working.

The nvme_setup_io_queues function would redo all the interrupt setup
once the driver knew how many vectors it needed to allocate. This
routine would fallback to MSI if MSI-x was not supported, so you should
be fine.

I'm using synopsys pcie driver which doesn't support MSIX, but I also want to use it to connect a SSD, what should I do to make it work?

I assume you mean synopsys pcie "drive" rather than driver. It should
work just fine.
