As far as I can tell in this case sysvect_apic_timer_interrupt() is called by the following code in arch/x86/kernel/idt.c: INTG(LOCAL_TIMER_VECTOR, asm_sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt), , which does not use IDTENTRY_SYSVEC framework and thus does not call irqentry_enter(). I guess handling those will require wrapping every interrupt gate into a function that performs register unpoisoning? By the way, if it helps, I think we don't necessarily have to call kmsan_unpoison_memory() from within the instrumentation_begin()/instrumentation_end() region? We could move the call to the beginning of irqentry_enter(), removing unnecessary duplication.
