When the irq_work callback, kvm_pmi_trigger_fn(), is invoked during a
VM-exit that also invokes __kvm_perf_overflow() as a result of
instruction emulation, kvm_pmu_deliver_pmi() will be called twice
before the next VM-entry.
That shouldn't be a problem. The local APIC is supposed to
automatically set the mask flag in LVTPC when it handles a PMI, so the
second PMI should be inhibited. However, KVM's local APIC emulation
fails to set the mask flag in LVTPC when it handles a PMI, so two PMIs
are delivered via the local APIC. In the common case, where LVTPC is
configured to deliver an NMI, the first NMI is vectored through the
guest IDT, and the second one is held pending. When the NMI handler
returns, the second NMI is vectored through the IDT. For Linux guests,
this results in the "dazed and confused" spurious NMI message.
Though the obvious fix is to set the mask flag in LVTPC when handling
a PMI, KVM's logic around synthesizing a PMI is unnecessarily
convoluted.
Remove the irq_work callback for synthesizing a PMI, and all of the
logic for invoking it. Instead, to prevent a vcpu from leaving C0 with
a PMI pending, add a check for KVM_REQ_PMI to kvm_vcpu_has_events().
