Subject: [PATCH 1/2] KVM: x86: ioapic: Set remote_irr only after successful delivery
Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2026 21:39:02 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <anSOdijwS6LBbfYJ@192.168.1.215> (raw)
From: Hao Zhang <zhanghao1@kylinos.cn>
The I/O APIC sets remote_irr for level-triggered interrupts to track that
the interrupt has been accepted by a local APIC and that the I/O APIC must
wait for the corresponding EOI before delivering the interrupt again.
But ioapic_service() currently sets remote_irr for any non-zero return
from kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic(). The delivery helper can return -1 when
no destination is found. Treating -1 as success causes KVM to set
remote_irr even though no interrupt was delivered and no EOI will ever
be generated, leaving the pin blocked.
Set remote_irr 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.")
