[PATCH 079/104] KVM: deliver PIC interrupt only to vcpu0

From: Avi Kivity
Date: Mon Sep 17 2007 - 04:49:46 EST


From: Qing He <qing.he@xxxxxxxxx>

This patch changes the PIC interrupts delivery. Now it is only delivered
to vcpu0 when either condition is met (on vcpu0):
1. local APIC is hardware disabled
2. LVT0 is unmasked and configured to delivery mode ExtInt

It fixes the 2x faster wall clock on x86_64 and SMP i386 Linux guests
