Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Do not change ICR on write to APIC_SELF_IPI
Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2022 09:54:03 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220224145403.2254840-1-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)

Emulating writes to SELF_IPI with a write to ICR has an unwanted side effect:
the value of ICR in vAPIC page gets changed.  The lists SELF_IPI as write-only,
with no associated MMIO offset, so any write should have no visible side
effect in the vAPIC page.
