However, I think there are some advantages to let irqchip call the eventfd_signal, one thing is clearer code organization. The other is that it seems it is necessary to differentiate the handling among different irqchips, the goal here is to keep logic around other types of irqchips intact to reduce code turmoil and fix ioapic? It looks like every irqchip has its own "set_irq" function (You probably already know this: kvm_set_routing_entry), I think it is logical to let every type irqchip (it is maybe necessary for other types of irq too) to decide when to notify vfio. > > > >> 2. kvm_notify_acked_irq() can't be called under ioapic->lock, so in [1] > >> I was unlocking ioapic->lock in ioapic_write_indirect() with a naive > >> assumption that it was as safe as doing it in > >> kvm_ioapic_update_eoi_one().
