[PATCH] KVM: x86: ioapic: Clear IRR for rtc bit when rtc EOI gotten

[Gonglei]

We hit a bug in our test while run PCMark 10 in a windows 7 VM,
The VM got stuck and the wallclock was hang after several minutes running
PCMark 10 in it.
It is quite easily to reproduce the bug with the upstream KVM and Qemu.

We found that KVM can not inject any RTC irq to VM after it was hang, it fails to
Deliver irq in ioapic_set_irq() because RTC irq is still pending in ioapic->irr.

static int ioapic_set_irq(struct kvm_ioapic *ioapic, unsigned int irq,
                  int irq_level, bool line_status)
{
...
         if (!irq_level) {
                  ioapic->irr &= ~mask;
                  ret = 1;
                  goto out;
         }
...
         if ((edge && old_irr == ioapic->irr) ||
             (!edge && entry.fields.remote_irr)) {
                  ret = 0;
                  goto out;
         }

According to RTC spec, after RTC injects a High level irq, OS will read CMOS's
register C to to clear the irq flag, and pull down the irq electric pin.

For Qemu, we will emulate the reading operation in cmos_ioport_read(),
but Guest OS will fire a write operation before to tell which register will be read
after this write, where we use s->cmos_index to record the following register to read.

But in our test, we found that there is a possible situation that Vcpu fails to read
RTC_REG_C to clear irq, This could happens while two VCpus are writing/reading
registers at the same time, for example, vcpu 0 is trying to read RTC_REG_C,
so it write RTC_REG_C first, where the s->cmos_index will be RTC_REG_C,
but before it tries to read register C, another vcpu1 is going to read RTC_YEAR,
it changes s->cmos_index to RTC_YEAR by a writing action.
The next operation of vcpu0 will be lead to read RTC_YEAR, In this case, we will miss
calling qemu_irq_lower(s->irq) to clear the irq. After this, kvm will never inject RTC irq,
and Windows VM will hang.

Let's clear IRR of rtc when corresponding EOI is gotten to avoid the issue.

  Thanks to Paolo provides a good solution. :)
