Subject: [PATCH 2/2] qemu-kvm: broken MSI routing work-around
Date: Wed, 22 Jul 2009 17:41:22 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090722144122.GC7942@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1248273529.git.mst@redhat.com>
Kernels up to 2.6.31 have a bug: MSI entries where looked at when irq
is acked, address_lo was interpreted as irqchip, and
address_hi as pin. If that matches a real interrupt this prevents
ack notifier from being processed.
Since these kernels ignore the value for address_hi when delivering
MSI, work around this by setting a value that never matches an
interrupt pin number.
Pointers to relevant kernel code, for reference: in kernel v2.6.31-rc3:
kvm_notify_acked_irq - fails to check irq type,
kvm_set_msi - ignored address_hi in message
