Before each vmentry to guest, vcpu_enter_guest() calls sync_pir_to_irr()
which calls vmx_hwapic_irr_update() to update RVI.
Currently, vmx_hwapic_irr_update() contains a tweak in case it is called
when CPU is running L2 and L1 don't intercept external-interrupts.
In that case, code injects interrupt directly into L2 instead of
updating RVI.
Besides being hacky (wouldn't expect function updating RVI to also
inject interrupt), it also doesn't handle this case correctly.
The code contains several issues:
1. When code calls kvm_queue_interrupt() it just passes it max_irr which
represents the highest IRR currently pending in L1 LAPIC.
This is problematic as interrupt was injected to guest but it's bit is
still set in LAPIC IRR instead of being cleared from IRR and set in ISR.
2. Code doesn't check if LAPIC PPR is set to accept an interrupt of
max_irr priority. It just checks if interrupts are enabled in guest with
vmx_interrupt_allowed().
To fix the above issues:
1. Simplify vmx_hwapic_irr_update() to just update RVI.
Note that this shouldn't happen when CPU is running L2
(See comment in code).
2. Since now vmx_hwapic_irr_update() only does logic for L1
virtual-interrupt-delivery, inject_pending_event() should be the
one responsible for injecting the interrupt directly into L2.
Therefore, change kvm_cpu_has_injectable_intr() to check L1
LAPIC when CPU is running L2.
3. Change vmx_sync_pir_to_irr() to set KVM_REQ_EVENT when L1
has a pending injectable interrupt.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
