When a guest has a PCI pass-through device with an interrupt, it will direct the interrupt to a particular guest VCPU. In fact the physical interrupt might arrive on any CPU, and then get delivered to the target VCPU in the emulated XICS (guest interrupt controller), and eventually delivered to the target VCPU. Now that we have code to handle device interrupts in real mode without exiting to the host kernel, there is an advantage to having the device interrupt arrive on the same sub(core) as the target VCPU is running on. In this situation, the interrupt can be delivered to the target VCPU without any exit to the host kernel (using a hypervisor doorbell interrupt between threads if necessary). This patch aims to get passed-through device interrupts arriving on the correct core by setting the interrupt server in the real hardware XICS for the interrupt to the first thread in the (sub)core where its target VCPU is running. We do this in the real-mode H_EOI code because the H_EOI handler already needs to look at the emulated ICS state for the interrupt (whereas the H_XIRR handler doesn't), and we know we are running in the target VCPU context at that point. We set the server CPU in hardware using an OPAL call, regardless of what the IRQ affinity mask for the interrupt says, and without updating the affinity mask. This amounts to saying that when an interrupt is passed through to a guest, as a matter of policy we allow the guest's affinity for the interrupt to override the host's. This is inspired by an earlier patch from Suresh Warrier, although none of this code came from that earlier patch. Signed-off-by: NPaul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>
