Hi,
When virtual machine starts, hang up.

I take it you mean the *guest* hangs? Because it doesn't get a timer
interrupt?

The kernel version of guest
is 4.16. Host support vgic_v3.

Your host kernel is something recent, I guess?

It was mainly due to the incorrect vgic_irq's(intid=27) group value
during injection interruption. when kvm_vgic_vcpu_init is called,
dist is not initialized at this time. Unable to get vgic V3 or V2
correctly, so group is not set.

Mmh, that shouldn't happen with (v)GICv3. Do you use QEMU (which
version?) or some other userland tool?


QEMU emulator version 3.0.50 .

group is setted to 1 when vgic_mmio_write_group is invoked at some
time.
when irq->group=0 (intid=27), No ICH_LR_GROUP flag was set and
interrupt injection failed.

This is not the right fix, not only because it basically reverts the
GICv3 part of 87322099052 (KVM: arm/arm64: vgic: Signal IRQs using
their configured group).

Can you try to work out why kvm_vgic_vcpu_init() is apparently called
before dist->vgic_model is set, also what value it has?
If I understand the code correctly, that shouldn't happen for a GICv3.

Even if the value of  group is correctly assigned in kvm_vgic_vcpu_init, the group is then written 0 through vgic_mmio_write_group.
   If the interrupt comes at this time, the interrupt injection fails.

Does that mean that the guest is configuring its interrupts as Group0?
That sounds wrong, Linux should configure all it's interrupts as
non-secure group1.

no, I think that uefi dose this, not linux.
1. kvm_vgic_vcpu_init
2. vgic_create
3. kvm_vgic_dist_init
4.vgic_mmio_write_group: uefi as guest, write group=0
5.vgic_mmio_write_group: linux as guest, write group=1

Is this the same issue fixed by EDK2 commit:

66127011a544b90e ("ArmPkg/ArmGicDxe ARM: fix encoding for GICv3 interrupt acknowledge")

... where EDK2 would try to use IAR0 rather than IAR1?

The commit messages notes this lead to a boot-time hang.

I managed to trigger an issue with a really old EFI implementation that
doesn't configure its interrupts as Group1, and yet tries to ACK its
interrupts using the Group1 accessor. Guess what? It is not going to work.

Commit c7fefb690661f2e38afcb8200bd318ecf38ab961 in the edk2 tree seems
to be the fix (I only assume it does, I haven't actually checked). A
recent build, as found in Debian Buster, works perfectly (tested with
both QEMU v2.12 and tip of tree).

Now, I really don't get what you're saying about Linux not getting
interrupts. How do you get to booting Linux if EFI is not making any
forward progress? Are you trying them independently?

I start linux with bypassing uefi, the print info is the same.

This is strange. That's probably the Linux 4.16  kernel setting group to 0, and I'll continue to track in guest.

Could you try the following patch:

If the value of dist->vgic_model is not properly initialized at the time we call kvm_vgic_vcpu_init is call, won't we still overwrite the irq->group when we get there? (I still haven't seen why we could consider dist->vgic_model is initialized at that point).

Shouldn't we do the irq->group initialization somewhere in kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_vcpu_init? (with some vgic_* function to encapsulate it of course). At that point I believe we know that dist->vgic_model is initialized.

Cheers,
