Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 10/27] KVM: SVM: Add avic_ipiv_is_soft_disabled() as a wrapper around enable_ipiv
Date: Wed,  8 Jul 2026 12:02:08 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cb1d2b9a3fb82984e04fe57d882500afa2ad9c40.1783490022.git.naveen@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1783490022.git.naveen@kernel.org>

enable_ipiv is used to disable AVIC IPI virtualization in software to
address hardware errata related to IPI acceleration, or because the user
chose to disable it manually through a module parameter. In either case,
AVIC IPIv itself is available in hardware and AVIC requires setup of
related data structures. To distinguish this from Secure AVIC mode which
completely lacks support for IPIv, add a helper to clarify the true
nature of this knob, which is to soft-disable IPIv.
