Subject: [PATCH v3 0/2] KVM: x86: Suppress false positives on "lost" IRQs
Date: Fri, 24 Jul 2026 10:34:23 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260724173425.278753-1-seanjc@google.com> (raw)

Don't WARN on "lost" IRQs if the VM has an in-kernel PIC or Xen emulation is
enabled, as vPIC and Xen emulation have guest-controllable and/or VM-wide IRQs
that can legitimately be consumed/deasserted without holding the vCPU's mutex.

v3:
 - Add a helper to weed out the problematic cases.
 - WARN in the "else" path so that there's only a single conditional branch
   in the happy path.
 - Exempt Xen. [Sashiko]

v2:
 - https://lore.kernel.org/all/86078441-92eb-4461-b823-7d3539ac5859@mail.kernel.org
 - Restrict the warning exemption to the in-kernel PIC case.
 - Remove the pr_err_ratelimited() logging.
 - Preserve the WARN_ON_ONCE() for non-PIC interrupt sources.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/345e9d6c-d7d9-4bab-adb3-d6a7bd27599f@mail.kernel.org

Sean Christopherson (2):
  KVM: x86: Don't WARN if IRQ disappears because it was cleared from the
    PIC
  KVM: x86: Don't WARN if IRQ disappears when Xen emulation is enabled.
