Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] KVM: selftests: arm64: Test pending writes to active level IRQs
Date: Wed, 28 Oct 2026 06:01:13 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261028050113.10046-4-kmehltretter@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261028050113.10046-1-kmehltretter@gmail.com>
Add a two-vCPU GICv3 test for a level SPI set pending through
GICD_ISPENDR. Re-pend the interrupt while it is active, first from the
handling vCPU and then from the other vCPU. Require a second delivery
after deactivation in both cases.
Also check that the other vCPU observes the initial pending state
before the interrupt is acknowledged, and that a remote GICD_ISPENDR
write before the ack merges with the initial pending state without
causing a second delivery.
Without the VGIC fix, the pending state written while active is cleared
on deactivation and the test fails before the second delivery.
