During interrupt affinity change, it is possible to have interrupts delivered to the old CPU after the affinity has changed to the new one. To prevent lost interrupts, local APIC IRR is checked on the old CPU. Similar checks must be done for posted MSIs given the same reason. Consider the following scenario: Device system agent iommu memory CPU/LAPIC 1 FEEX_XXXX 2 Interrupt request 3 Fetch IRTE -> 4 ->Atomic Swap PID.PIR(vec) Push to Global Observable(GO) 5 if (ON*) i done;* else 6 send a notification -> * ON: outstanding notification, 1 will suppress new notifications If the affinity change happens between 3 and 5 in IOMMU, the old CPU's posted interrupt request (PIR) could have pending bit set for the vector being moved.
