Subject: [PATCH v4 8/8] KVM: x86: Update APICv ISR (a.k.a. SVI) as part of kvm_apic_update_apicv()
Date: Thu, 8 Jan 2026 19:45:32 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260109034532.1012993-9-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260109034532.1012993-1-seanjc@google.com>
Fold the calls to .hwapic_isr_update() in kvm_apic_set_state(),
kvm_lapic_reset(), and __kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() into
kvm_apic_update_apicv(), as updating SVI is directly related to updating
KVM's own cache of ISR information, e.g. SVI is more or less the APICv
equivalent of highest_isr_cache.
Note, calling .hwapic_isr_update() during kvm_apic_update_apicv() has
benign side effects, as doing so changes the orders of the calls in
kvm_lapic_reset() and kvm_apic_set_state(), specifically with respect to
to the order between .hwapic_isr_update() and .apicv_post_state_restore().
However, the changes in ordering are glorified nops as the former hook is
VMX-only and the latter is SVM-only.
