Subject: [PATCH] KVM: nVMX: promptly process interrupts delivered while in guest mode
Date: Wed, 20 Oct 2021 10:52:30 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211020145231.871299-2-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

Since commit c300ab9f08df ("KVM: x86: Replace late check_nested_events() hack with
more precise fix") there is no longer the certainty that check_nested_events()
tries to inject an external interrupt vmexit to L1 on every call to vcpu_enter_guest.
Therefore, even in that case we need to set KVM_REQ_EVENT.  This ensures
that inject_pending_event() is called, and from there kvm_check_nested_events().

Fixes: c300ab9f08df ("KVM: x86: Replace late check_nested_events() hack with more precise fix")
