Details

Summary
  • Limit queue autoconfiguration to 8 queues to prevent the driver from requesting a large number of MSI-X vectors at boot.
  • Fix potential kernel panic when loading the driver and the driver cannot setup all requested MSIX vectors. Instead, attach() should exit with a failure code.
    • Move taskqueue setup to later in attach() to prevent having to free taskqueues if another error later in attach() occurs.
Test Plan

-Reboot/attach/init tests using default MSIX vectors.
-Reboot/attach/init tests using user-defined MSIX vectors (not to exceed 184).
