Storport and MSI

NTDEV
1

Hi ,
In last few driver developer conferences I have heard about MSI implementation in STORPORT. Also there is a presentation available about it which just mentions it a little.
I was not able to find any documentation for this so it makes me wonder may be it will be Windows Vista from which MSFT will start supporting MSI In storport. Can anyone update me about this.

Also please let me know if there is any other documentation available about it.

Thanks,

MSI support in storport is reliant on OS support for MSI. AFAIK, MSI support is slated for Vista only at this point (but I could be wrong and it could be backported for all I know)

I have seen WHQL complaining about disabled MSI
support for PCI-Express devices on XP too. I dont get
it, the OS doesnt support MSI yet but it is being
validated in the PCI compliance test.
