[PATCH v8 12/20] KVM: selftests: Add option to set empty routing between IRQs in eventfd IRQ test
From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Fri Jun 26 2026 - 17:38:34 EST
From: David Matlack <dmatlack@xxxxxxxxxx>
Extend the eventfd IRQ test with an '-e' flag to set empty GSI routing
between interrupts. Clobbering the GSI routing table verifies that KVM
correctly handles CPUx => NULL => CPUy transitions, not just CPUx => CPUy
transitions, and verifies that KVM can "rebuild" an entire routing setup.
