Subject: [PATCH v3 2/4] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: XICS: Update irq_type for cleanup to work
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2026 13:59:18 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261012082922.218799-3-gautam@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261012082922.218799-1-gautam@linux.ibm.com>

In kvmppc_xive_connect_vcpu(), if any failures are encountered, the
control flow jumps to the 'bail' label where kvmppc_xive_cleanup_vcpu()
is called. This cleanup function exits prematurely since
vcpu->arch.irq_type is set to KVMPPC_IRQ_DEFAULT at this point. This ends
up resulting in wasted memory.

Fix this by setting irq_type to KVMPPC_IRQ_XICS before vcpu configuration
starts. This makes XICS initialization symmetrical to XIVE
initialization done in kvmppc_xive_native_connect_vcpu().

Fixes: 5af50993850a ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Native usage of the XIVE interrupt controller")
