This is too late I'm afraid. If I'm not mistaken PV patching happens
earlier, so .init.guest_late_init (kvm_guest_init()) is good and
arch_initcall() is bad.

.init.guest_late_init (kvm_guest_init()) is called before arch_initcall() and kvm_flush_tlb_others && kvm_send_ipi_mask_allbutself rely on __pv_cpu_mask. So, i can not put this assign in kvm_guest_init().


Have you checked that with this patch kvm_flush_tlb_others() is still
being called?

yes. I add a printk and i get the log.


Actually, there is no need to assign kvm_flush_tlb_others() so late. We
can always check if __pv_cpu_mask was allocated and revert back to the
architectural path if not.
I am sorry i don't really understand. Can you explain in more detail? Thx.
