Subject: [PATCH v3 00/12] My AVIC patch queue

Hi!

This is a series of bugfixes to the AVIC dynamic inhibition, which was
made while trying to fix bugs as much as possible in this area and trying
to make the AVIC+SYNIC conditional enablement work.

* Patches 1-6 are code from Sean Christopherson which
  implement an alternative approach of inhibiting AVIC without
  disabling its memslot.
  Those patches are new in this version of the patchset.

* Patches 7-8 in this series fix a race condition which can cause
  a lost write from a guest to APIC when the APIC write races
  the AVIC un-inhibition, and add a warning to catch this problem
  if it re-emerges again.

  V3: moved the mutex to kvm.arch and added comment

* Patch 9 is the patch from Vitaly about allowing AVIC with SYNC
  as long as the guest doesn’t use the AutoEOI feature. I only slightly
  changed it to expose the AutoEOI cpuid bit regardless of AVIC enablement.

* Patch 10 is a new patch in this version, which is a refactoring that is now
  possible in SVM AVIC inhibition code, because the RCU lock is not dropped anymore.

* Patch 11 fixes another issue I found in AVIC inhibit code:

  Currently avic_vcpu_load/avic_vcpu_put are called on userspace entry/exit
  from KVM (aka kvm_vcpu_get/kvm_vcpu_put), and these functions update the
  "is running" bit in the AVIC physical ID remap table and update the
  target vCPU in iommu code.

  However both of these functions don't do anything when AVIC is inhibited
  thus the "is running" bit will be kept enabled during the exit to userspace.
  This shouldn't be a big issue as the caller
  doesn't use the AVIC when inhibited but still inconsistent and can trigger
  a warning about this in avic_vcpu_load.

  To be on the safe side I think it makes sense to call
  avic_vcpu_put/avic_vcpu_load when inhibiting/uninhibiting the AVIC.
  This will ensure that the work these functions do is matched.

* Patch 12 (also new in this series) removes the pointless APIC base
  relocation from AVIC to make it consistent with the rest of KVM.

  (both AVIC and APICv only support default base, while regular KVM,
  sort of support any APIC base as long as it is not RAM.
  If guest attempts to relocate APIC base to non RAM area,
  while APICv/AVIC are active, the new base will be non accelerated,
  while the default base will continue to be AVIC/APICv backed).

Best regards,
	Maxim Levitsky
