From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@xxxxxxxxxxx> When SMP VM start, AP may lost INIT because of receiving INIT between kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_get/set_vcpu_events. vcpu 0 vcpu 1 kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_get_vcpu_events events->smi.latched_init = 0 send INIT to vcpu1 set vcpu1's pending_events kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_set_vcpu_events if (events->smi.latched_init == 0) clear INIT in pending_events This patch fixes it by not touching INIT pending if INIT is not latched which in SMM and just restoring the latched INIT after SET_VCPU_EVENTS. Thanks Peng Hao for the report and original commit message.
