[PATCH v3 4/4] KVM: x86: allow hotplug of VCPU with APIC ID over 0xff

From: Radim KrÄmÃÅ
Date: Thu Dec 15 2016 - 12:08:06 EST


LAPIC after reset is in xAPIC mode, which poses a problem for hotplug of
VCPUs with high APIC ID, because reset VCPU is waiting for INIT/SIPI,
but there is no way to uniquely address it using xAPIC.

>From many possible options, we chose the one that also works on real
hardware: accepting interrupts addressed to LAPIC's x2APIC ID even in
xAPIC mode.

KVM intentionally differs from real hardware, because real hardware
(Knights Landing) does just "x2apic_id & 0xff" to decide whether to
accept the interrupt in xAPIC mode and it can deliver one interrupt to
more than one physical destination, e.g. 0x123 to 0x123 and 0x23.

v3:
* move code that populated physical_map from patch 2 [David]
* extend a comment kvm_apic_match_physical_addr()
v2:
* Do not add capability [David, Paolo]
* Tag it as a fix [David]
