Great point, thanks. Indeed, it's not crucial to know the vIRQ mask
state at the registration time. It might be ok to check it later, at the
first vEOI after registration. So the wording should be changed to
"...but also to know its initial mask state before any mask notifier has
fired".

As I wrote in [1], the initialization of the mask state in this patchset
is actually racy (we may miss mask state change at initialization), and
I was about to send v2 which fixes this race by implementing
kvm_register_and_fire_irq_mask_notifier() as suggested in [1]. Now your
suggestion has made me think wouldn't it be possible to avoid this race
in a simpler way, by checking the vIRQ state directly in the ack (vEOI)
notifier.

It seems it still would be racy, e.g.:

1. ack notifier checks the vIRQ state, it is masked
2. the vIRQ gets unmasked
3. mask notifier fires, but the vIRQ is not flagged as postponed yet, so
   mask notifier doesn't notify resamplefd
4. ack notifier flags the vIRQ as postponed and doesn't notify
   resamplefd either

=> unmask event lost => the physical IRQ is not unmasked by vfio.

This race could be avoided if the ack notifier checked the vIRQ state
under resampler->lock, i.e. synchronized with the mask notifier. But
that would deadlock, for the same reason as mentioned in [1]: checking
the vIRQ state requires locking KVM irqchip lock (e.g. ioapic->lock on
x86) whereas the mask notifier is called under this lock.
