[PATCH v3 0/4] KVM: x86: hyper-v: Conditionally allow SynIC with APICv/AVIC

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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:

Vitaly Kuznetsov (4):
  KVM: x86: Use common 'enable_apicv' variable for both APICv and AVIC
  KVM: x86: Drop vendor specific functions for APICv/AVIC enablement
