Subject: [PATCH MANUALSEL 5.15 1/2] KVM: x86: lapic: don't touch irr_pending in kvm_apic_update_apicv when inhibiting it
Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2022 09:05:26 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220222140527.211584-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)

From: Maxim Levitsky <mlevitsk@redhat.com>

[ Upstream commit 755c2bf878607dbddb1423df9abf16b82205896f ]

kvm_apic_update_apicv is called when AVIC is still active, thus IRR bits
can be set by the CPU after it is called, and don't cause the irr_pending
to be set to true.

Also logic in avic_kick_target_vcpu doesn't expect a race with this
function so to make it simple, just keep irr_pending set to true and
let the next interrupt injection to the guest clear it.
