Subject: [PATCH 2/3] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: XICS: Update irq_type for cleanup to work
Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2026 15:32:05 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261001100208.1271628-3-gautam@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261001100208.1271628-1-gautam@linux.ibm.com>
In kvmppc_xive_connect_vcpu(), if any failures are encountered, the
control flow jumps to the 'bail' label where kvmppc_xive_cleanup_vcpu()
is called. This cleanup function exits prematurely since
vcpu->arch.irq_type is set to KVMPPC_IRQ_DEFAULT at this point. This ends
up resulting in wasted memory.
Fix this by setting irq_type to KVMPPC_IRQ_XICS before vcpu configuration
starts. This makes XICS initialization symmetrical to XIVE
initialization done in kvmppc_xive_native_connect_vcpu().
Fixes: 5af50993850a ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Native usage of the XIVE interrupt controller")
