      KVM: VMX: update vcpu posted-interrupt descriptor when assigning device · a2486020
      Marcelo Tosatti 提交于
      For VMX, when a vcpu enters HLT emulation, pi_post_block will:
      
      1) Add vcpu to per-cpu list of blocked vcpus.
      
      2) Program the posted-interrupt descriptor "notification vector"
      to POSTED_INTR_WAKEUP_VECTOR
      
      With interrupt remapping, an interrupt will set the PIR bit for the
      vector programmed for the device on the CPU, test-and-set the
      ON bit on the posted interrupt descriptor, and if the ON bit is clear
      generate an interrupt for the notification vector.
      
      This way, the target CPU wakes upon a device interrupt and wakes up
      the target vcpu.
      
      Problem is that pi_post_block only programs the notification vector
      if kvm_arch_has_assigned_device() is true. Its possible for the
      following to happen:
      
      1) vcpu V HLTs on pcpu P, kvm_arch_has_assigned_device is false,
      notification vector is not programmed
      2) device is assigned to VM
      3) device interrupts vcpu V, sets ON bit
      (notification vector not programmed, so pcpu P remains in idle)
      4) vcpu 0 IPIs vcpu V (in guest), but since pi descriptor ON bit is set,
      kvm_vcpu_kick is skipped
      5) vcpu 0 busy spins on vcpu V's response for several seconds, until
      RCU watchdog NMIs all vCPUs.
      
      To fix this, use the start_assignment kvm_x86_ops callback to kick
      vcpus out of the halt loop, so the notification vector is
      properly reprogrammed to the wakeup vector.
