[PATCH v3] KVM: VMX: enable acknowledge interupt on vmexit

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Yang Zhang <yang.z.zhang@xxxxxxxxx>

The "acknowledge interrupt on exit" feature controls processor behavior
for external interrupt acknowledgement. When this control is set, the
processor acknowledges the interrupt controller to acquire the
interrupt vector on VM exit.

After enabling this feature, an interrupt which arrived when target cpu is
running in vmx non-root mode will be handled by vmx handler instead of handler
in idt. Currently, vmx handler only fakes an interrupt stack and jump to idt
table to let real handler to handle it. Further, we will recognize the interrupt
and only delivery the interrupt which not belong to current vcpu through idt table.
The interrupt which belonged to current vcpu will be handled inside vmx handler.
This will reduce the interrupt handle cost of KVM.

Refer to Intel SDM volum 3, chapter 33.2.
