So why is this an ackfd flag and not an irqfd flag? I am guessing because this way you do not need an extra ack notifier, but isn't this an internal optimization leaking out to userspace? > --- > > Documentation/virtual/kvm/api.txt | 4 ++++ > arch/x86/kvm/x86.c | 1 + > include/linux/kvm.h | 3 +++ > virt/kvm/eventfd.c | 14 +++++++++++++- > 4 files changed, 21 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/Documentation/virtual/kvm/api.txt b/Documentation/virtual/kvm/api.txt > index 77b4837..128d4c3 100644 > --- a/Documentation/virtual/kvm/api.txt > +++ b/Documentation/virtual/kvm/api.txt > @@ -2029,6 +2029,10 @@ the eventfd is only triggered when the specified IRQ source ID is > pending.
