This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled KVM: arm64: vgic: Read HW interrupt pending state from the HW to the 5.16-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: kvm-arm64-vgic-read-hw-interrupt-pending-state-from-.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.16 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit b75e323ff88c3e835d47e365bba06ec286e3014d Author: Marc Zyngier <maz@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu Feb 3 09:24:45 2022 +0000 KVM: arm64: vgic: Read HW interrupt pending state from the HW [ Upstream commit 5bfa685e62e9ba93c303a9a8db646c7228b9b570 ] It appears that a read access to GIC[DR]_I[CS]PENDRn doesn't always result in the pending interrupts being accurately reported if they are mapped to a HW interrupt. This is particularily visible when acking the timer interrupt and reading the GICR_ISPENDR1 register immediately after, for example (the interrupt appears as not-pending while it really is...). This is because a HW interrupt has its 'active and pending state' kept in the *physical* distributor, and not in the virtual one, as mandated by the spec (this is what allows the direct deactivation). The virtual distributor only caries the pending and active *states* (note the plural, as these are two independent and non-overlapping states). Fix it by reading the HW state back, either from the timer itself or from the distributor if necessary.
