I think this is just a standard issue of a level-triggered interrupt handler in L1 (Hyper-V) that performs EOI before it lowers the irq-line. I don’t think vector 96 is even related to the issue at hand here. This is why after it was already handled, the loop of EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT happens on vector 80 and not vector 96. In addition, there is a missing optimisation from Hyper-V that after it handles an EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT exit, it doesn’t enable interrupts to receive other pending host interrupts (In our case, the pending vector 80) and will therefore only receive it once it enters back to L2 which will cause another EXTERNAL_INTERRUPT exit but this time on vector 80. -Liran
