This overhead is for no purpose (only in my view ...) and will result in an interrupt performance degradation. Implement kvm_arch_set_irq_inatomic() for arm/arm64 to support direct irqfd MSI injection, by which we can get rid of the annoying latency. As a result, irqfd MSI intensive scenarios (e.g., DPDK with high packet processing workloads) will benefit from it. Signed-off-by: Zenghui Yu <yuzenghui@huawei.com> --- It seems that only MSI will follow the IRQFD path, did I miss something? This patch is still under test and sent out for early feedback. If I have any mis-understanding, please fix me up and let me know.
