Hmm, why do we need this?
The current design insure that we have not two concurrent SSCH requests.
How ever I want here to track spurious interrupt.
If we implement cancel, halt or clear requests, we also may trigger (AFAIU)
a second interrupts depending on races between instructions, controller
and device.
You won't get an interrupt for a successful cancel. If you do a
halt/clear, you will make the subchannel halt/clear pending in addition
to start pending and you'll only get one interrupt (if the I/O has
progressed far enough, you won't be able to issue a hsch). The
interesting case is:
- guest does a ssch, we do a ssch on the device
- the guest does a csch before it got the interrupt for the ssch
- before we do the csch on the device, the subchannel is already status
pending with completion of the ssch
- after we issue the csch, we get a second interrupt (for the csch)
I think we should present two interrupts to the guest in that case.
Races between issuing ssch/hsch/csch and the subchannel becoming status
pending happen on real hardware as well, we're just more likely to see
them with the vfio layer in between.
AFAIU this will be the problem of the person implementing the clear
and the halt for vfio-ccw. I.e. it's a non-problem right now.
(I'm currently trying to recall what we're doing with unsolicited
interrupts. These are fun wrt deferred cc 1; I'm not sure if there are
cases where we want to present a deferred cc to the guest.)
What are 'fun wrt deferred cc 1' again? The deferred cc I understand
but wrt does not click at all.
Also, doing a second ssch before we got final state for the first one
is perfectly valid. Linux just does not do it, so I'm not sure if we
should invest too much time there.
We do not need it strongly.
