[PATCH v2 1/7] vfio/pci: Disable auto-enable of exclusive INTx IRQ

From: Alex Williamson
Date: Fri Mar 08 2024 - 18:07:24 EST


Currently for devices requiring masking at the irqchip for INTx, ie.
devices without DisINTx support, the IRQ is enabled in request_irq()
and subsequently disabled as necessary to align with the masked status
flag. This presents a window where the interrupt could fire between
these events, resulting in the IRQ incrementing the disable depth twice.
This would be unrecoverable for a user since the masked flag prevents
nested enables through vfio.

Instead, invert the logic using IRQF_NO_AUTOEN such that exclusive INTx
is never auto-enabled, then unmask as required.
