Subject: [PATCH 0/2] KVM: x86: fix edge EOI and IOAPIC reconfig race
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2015 15:46:08 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1439473570-13763-1-git-send-email-rkrcmar@redhat.com> (raw)

[1/2] changes sync_pir_to_irr interface to avoid a definitely
superfluous KVM_REQ_EVENT in [2/2].  It's possible that we don't need
KVM_REQ_EVENT, but a slight slowdown in execution is worth the time
needed for a proof.  (A quick test showed that KVM_REQ_EVENT is always
already set if sync_pir_to_irr does something.)

[2/2] is applicable to userspace split IOAPIC as well, but I hope that
we want it to work like normal IOAPIC (no ACK for edge irq), so I
haven't fixed it.

Radim Krčmář (2):
  KVM: x86: return bool from x86_ops.sync_pir_to_irr
