Changes since v2: - First two patches got merged, rebase. - Use 'enable_apicv = avic = ...' in PATCH1 [Paolo] - Collect R-b tags for PATCH2 [Sean, Max] - Use hv_apicv_update_work() to get out of SRCU lock [Max] - "KVM: x86: Check for pending interrupts when APICv is getting disabled" added. Original description: APICV_INHIBIT_REASON_HYPERV is currently unconditionally forced upon SynIC activation as SynIC's AutoEOI is incompatible with APICv/AVIC. It is, however, possible to track whether the feature was actually used by the guest and only inhibit APICv/AVIC when needed. The series can be tested with the followin hack: diff --git a/arch/x86/kvm/cpuid.c b/arch/x86/kvm/cpuid.c index 9a48f138832d..65a9974f80d9 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kvm/cpuid.c +++ b/arch/x86/kvm/cpuid.c @@ -147,6 +147,13 @@ void kvm_update_cpuid_runtime(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu) vcpu->arch.ia32_misc_enable_msr & MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE_MWAIT); } + + /* Dirty hack: force HV_DEPRECATING_AEOI_RECOMMENDED.
