I am a little confused with the 'continue'. If the destination is not
single vcpu, shouldn't we rollback to use non-PI mode?
Here is the logic:
- If it is single destination, we will use PI no matter it is fixed or lowest-priority.
- If it is not single destination:
a) It is fixed, we will use non-PI
b) It is lowest-priority and vector-hashing is enabled, we will use PI
c) otherwise, use non-PI
If it is single destination previously, then change to no-single mode.
Can current code cover this case?
In my test, before setting irq affinity (change single vcpu to non-single vcpu
in this case), the guest will mask the interrupt first, so before getting here, IRTE
has been changed back to remapped mode already(when guest masks the MSIx,
we will change back to remapped mode), hence nothing needed here.
Digging into the linux code (guest) a bit more, I found that if interrupt remapping
is not enabled in the guest (IR is not supported for guest anyway), it will always
mask the MSI/MSIx before setting the irq affinity. So the code should work
well currently.
We should not rely on guest's behavior. From code level, it need be fixed.
However, for robustness, I think explicitly changing IRTE back to remapped
mode for the 'continue' case should be a good idea.
This is what i am looking for.
Radim, Paolo, what are your guys' options about this? Any comments are
appreciated! Thanks a lot!
Thanks,
Feng
