[Qemu-devel] [PULL 19/21] ioapic: allow buggy guests mishandling level-triggered interrupts to make progress

[Paolo Bonzini]

From: Vitaly Kuznetsov <address@hidden>

It was found that Hyper-V 2016 on KVM in some configurations (q35 machine +
piix4-usb-uhci) hangs on boot. Root-cause was that one of Hyper-V
level-triggered interrupt handler performs EOI before fixing the cause of
the interrupt. This results in IOAPIC keep re-raising the level-triggered
interrupt after EOI because irq-line remains asserted.

Gory details: https://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg184484.html
(the whole thread).

Turns out we were dealing with similar issues before; in-kernel IOAPIC
implementation has commit 184564efae4d ("kvm: ioapic: conditionally delay
irq delivery duringeoi broadcast") which describes a very similar issue.

Steal the idea from the above mentioned commit for IOAPIC implementation in
QEMU. SUCCESSIVE_IRQ_MAX_COUNT, delay and the comment are borrowed as well.
