[PATCH v2 0/4] Fix a race between posted interrupt delivery and migration in a nested VM

From: Mingwei Zhang
Date: Sun Aug 28 2022 - 18:25:52 EST


This patch set aims to fix a race condition between posted interrupt
delivery and migration for a nested VM. In particular, we proves that when
a nested vCPU is halted and just migrated, it will lose a posted
interrupt from another vCPU in the same VM.

Changelog:

v1 -> v2:
- Replace the original vmcs12 bug fix patch into one that processes nested
state pages request in a common function [paolo].
- Update the commit messages [seanjc, oupton].
- Remove vcpu_run_interruptable(), use __vcpu_run() instead [seanjc].
- Fix format issue in prepare_posted_intr_desc() [seanjc].
- Rebase to kvm/queue.
