Subject: [PATCH 1/2] KVM: x86: ioapic: Update state only after successful delivery
Date: Mon, 10 Aug 2026 14:17:29 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <anls-aUppuiFolpS@192.168.1.215> (raw)
From: Hao Zhang <zhanghao1@kylinos.cn>
The I/O APIC tracks delivered interrupts in state that is later used to
decide whether an interrupt is still pending or blocked waiting for an
EOI.
For level-triggered interrupts, remote_irr means that a local APIC
accepted the interrupt and that the I/O APIC must wait for the
corresponding EOI before delivering the interrupt again. For
edge-triggered interrupts, irr_delivered is used to hide delivered
interrupts from KVM_GET_IRQCHIP so that userspace does not reinject an
interrupt that has already left the I/O APIC.
But ioapic_service() currently updates that state before or without
checking that interrupt delivery actually succeeded.
kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic() can return -1 when no destination is found.
Treating failed delivery as success can either leave a level-triggered
pin blocked forever waiting for an EOI that will never be generated, or
cause KVM_GET_IRQCHIP to drop an undelivered edge-triggered interrupt
from the saved IRR state.
Update I/O APIC delivery state only when the delivery result is positive,
i.e. when at least one local APIC accepted the interrupt.
Fixes: 4925663a079c ("KVM: Report IRQ injection status to userspace.")
Fixes: 5bda6eed2e36 ("KVM: ioapic: Record edge-triggered interrupts delivery status")

Changes in v2:
- Address Kai Huang's review by deferring both remote_irr and
irr_delivered updates until interrupt delivery succeeds.
- Extend the selftest to cover failed edge-triggered delivery and verify
that the interrupt remains pending in IRR.
