Subject: [PATCH v2 6.1.y 1/3] KVM: nVMX: Add a helper to get highest pending from Posted Interrupt vector
Date: Fri, 19 Jun 2026 16:31:05 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260619203107.2752678-2-main.kalliope@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260619203107.2752678-1-main.kalliope@gmail.com>

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

commit d83c36d822be44db4bad0c43bea99c8908f54117 upstream.

Add a helper to retrieve the highest pending vector given a Posted
Interrupt descriptor.  While the actual operation is straightforward, it's
surprisingly easy to mess up, e.g. if one tries to reuse lapic.c's
find_highest_vector(), which doesn't work with PID.PIR due to the APIC's
IRR and ISR component registers being physically discontiguous (they're
4-byte registers aligned at 16-byte intervals).

To make PIR handling more consistent with respect to IRR and ISR handling,
return -1 to indicate "no interrupt pending".

[ Nicholas Dudar: backport to 6.1.y. 6.1.y defines struct pi_desc in
  posted_intr.h and predates the move to <asm/posted_intr.h>, so the helper
  and the <linux/find.h> include go in posted_intr.h. ]
