I very much care about concurrent SIGP SENSE (a "lightweight" order
handled in-kernel) and how that interacts with the "heavy weight" SIGP
orders (handled in userspace). SIGP SENSE might return CC0 (accepted)
if a vcpu is operating normally, or CC1 (status stored) with status
bits indicating an external call is pending and/or the vcpu is stopped.
This means that the actual response will depend on whether userspace
has picked up the sigp order and processed it or not. Giving CC0 when
userspace is actively processing a SIGP STOP/STOP AND STORE STATUS
would be misleading for the SIGP SENSE. (Did the STOP order get lost?
Failed? Not yet dispatched? Blocked?)

Meanwhile, the Principles of Operation (SA22-7832-12) page 4-95
describes a list of orders that would generate a CC2 (busy) when the
order is still "active" in userspace:

"""
A previously issued start, stop, restart, stop-
and-store-status, set-prefix, store-status-at-
address order, or store-additional-status-at-
address has been accepted by the
addressed CPU, and execution of the func-
tion requested by the order has not yet been
completed.
...
If the currently specified order is sense, external
call, emergency signal, start, stop, restart, stop
and store status, set prefix, store status at
address, set architecture, set multithreading, or
store additional status at address, then the order
is rejected, and condition code 2 is set. If the cur-
rently specified order is one of the reset orders,
or an unassigned or not-implemented order, the
order code is interpreted as described in “Status
Bits” on page 4-96.
"""

(There is another entry for the reset orders; not copied here for sake
of keeping my novella manageable.)

So, you're right that I could be more precise in terms how QEMU handles
a SIGP order while it's already busy handling one, and only limit the
CC2 from the kernel to those in-kernel orders. But I did say I took
this simplified approach in the cover letter. :)

Regardless, because of the above I really do want/need a way to give
the kernel a clue that userspace is doing something, without waiting
for userspace to say "hey, that order you kicked back to me? I'm
working on it now, I'll let you know when it's done!" Otherwise, SIGP
SENSE (and other lightweight friends) is still racing with the receipt
of a "start the sigp" ioctl.

Still digesting that one. Regarding the potential bogus indicator, at
one point I had the kernel recording the SIGP order itself that was
sent to a vcpu, similar to QEMU's cpu->env.sigp_order (which is only
used for the STOP variants?), instead of the simple toggle used here. I
found myself not really caring WHAT the order was, just that QEMU was
doing SOMETHING, which is why it's just on/off.

But it does mean that the QEMU patch is rather unpleasant, and maybe
knowing what order is being reset helps clean up that side of things?
