[PATCH 4/4] KVM: VMX: Register posted interrupt wakeup handler iff APICv is enabled

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Fri Oct 08 2021 - 20:11:24 EST


Don't bother registering a posted interrupt wakeup handler if APICv is
disabled, KVM utilizes the wakeup vector if and only if APICv is enabled.
Practically speaking, there's no meaningful functional change as KVM's
wakeup handler is a glorified nop if there are no vCPUs using posted
interrupts, not to mention that nothing in the system should be sending
wakeup interrupts when APICv is disabled.
