Message signaled interrupt

Message signaled interrupt extension
One of two PCI-defined extensions to 
support message signaled interrupts 
(MSI), in PCI 2.2 and later and PCI 
Express. MSIs are an alternative way of 
generating an interrupt through special 
messages that allow emulation of a pin 
assertion or deassertion. 
MSI-X (defined in PCI 3.0) allows a device 
to allocate any number of interrupts 
between 1 and 2048 and gives each inter-
rupt separate data and address registers. 
Optional features in MSI (64-bit 
addressing and interrupt masking) are 
mandatory with MSI-X.
