Subject: [PATCH 07/19] cpu-common: use atomic access for interrupt_request
Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2025 12:12:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250908101241.2110068-8-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250908101241.2110068-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>
Writes to interrupt_request used non-atomic accesses, but there are a
few cases where the access was not protected by the BQL. Now that
there is a full set of helpers, it's easier to guarantee that
interrupt_request accesses are fully atomic, so just drop the
requirement instead of fixing them.
