Abstract
Techniques are disclosed relating to address mapping for message signaled interrupts. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes interrupt control circuitry configured to process, from multiple client circuits, message signaled interrupts that include addresses in an interrupt controller address space. First and second interface controller circuitry may control respective peripheral interfaces for multiple devices. Remap control circuitry may be configured to access a first table based on at least a portion of virtual addresses of a first message signaled interrupt from the first interface controller circuit and generate a first address in the interrupt controller address space based on an accessed entry in the first table and access a second table based on at least a portion of virtual addresses of a second message signaled interrupt from the second interface controller circuit and generate a second address in the interrupt controller address space based on an accessed entry in the second table.
