Sean Christopherson d3ddef46f2 KVM: x86: Unconditionally set irr_pending when updating APICv state 
Always set irr_pending (to true) when updating APICv status to fix a bug
where KVM fails to set irr_pending when userspace sets APIC state and
APICv is disabled, which ultimate results in KVM failing to inject the
pending interrupt(s) that userspace stuffed into the vIRR, until another
interrupt happens to be emulated by KVM.

Only the APICv-disabled case is flawed, as KVM forces apic->irr_pending to
be true if APICv is enabled, because not all vIRR updates will be visible
to KVM.

Hit the bug with a big hammer, even though strictly speaking KVM can scan
the vIRR and set/clear irr_pending as appropriate for this specific case.
The bug was introduced by commit 755c2bf878 ("KVM: x86: lapic: don't
touch irr_pending in kvm_apic_update_apicv when inhibiting it"), which as
the shortlog suggests, deleted code that updated irr_pending.

Before that commit, kvm_apic_update_apicv() did indeed scan the vIRR, with
with the crucial difference that kvm_apic_update_apicv() did the scan even
when APICv was being *disabled*, e.g. due to an AVIC inhibition.

        struct kvm_lapic *apic = vcpu->arch.apic;

        if (vcpu->arch.apicv_active) {
                /* irr_pending is always true when apicv is activated. */
                apic->irr_pending = true;
                apic->isr_count = 1;
        } else {
                apic->irr_pending = (apic_search_irr(apic) != -1);
                apic->isr_count = count_vectors(apic->regs + APIC_ISR);
        }

And _that_ bug (clearing irr_pending) was introduced by commit b26a695a1d
("kvm: lapic: Introduce APICv update helper function"), prior to which KVM
unconditionally set irr_pending to true in kvm_apic_set_state(), i.e.
assumed that the new virtual APIC state could have a pending IRQ.

Furthermore, in addition to introducing this issue, commit 755c2bf878
also papered over the underlying bug: KVM doesn't ensure CPUs and devices
see APICv as disabled prior to searching the IRR.  Waiting until KVM
emulates an EOI to update irr_pending "works", but only because KVM won't
emulate EOI until after refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl(), and there are plenty of
memory barriers in between.  I.e. leaving irr_pending set is basically
hacking around bad ordering.

So, effectively revert to the pre-b26a695a1d78 behavior for state restore,
even though it's sub-optimal if no IRQs are pending, in order to provide a
minimal fix, but leave behind a FIXME to document the ugliness.  With luck,
the ordering issue will be fixed and the mess will be cleaned up in the
not-too-distant future.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

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.
