Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Fix virtual wire mode
Date: Sat, 20 May 2017 13:24:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1495279472-4576-1-git-send-email-jschoenh@amazon.de> (raw)

Intel SDM says, that at most one LAPIC should be configured with ExtINT
delivery. KVM configures all LAPICs this way. This causes pic_unlock()
to kick the first available vCPU from the internal KVM data structures.
If this vCPU is not the BSP, but some not-yet-booted AP, the BSP may
never realize that there is an interrupt.

Fix that by enabling ExtINT delivery only for the BSP.

This allows booting a Linux guest without a TSC in the above situation.
Otherwise the BSP gets stuck in calibrate_delay_converge().
