This fixes a bug in the XICS emulation on POWER9 machines which is triggered by the guest doing a H_IPI with priority = 0 (the highest priority). What happens is that the notification interrupt arrives at the destination at priority zero. The loop in scan_interrupts() sees that a priority 0 interrupt is pending, but because xc->mfrr is zero, we break out of the loop before taking the notification interrupt out of the queue and EOI-ing it. (This doesn't happen when xc->mfrr != 0; in that case we process the priority-0 notification interrupt on the first iteration of the loop, and then break out of a subsequent iteration of the loop with hirq == XICS_IPI.) To fix this, we move the prio >= xc->mfrr check down to near the end of the loop. However, there are then some other things that need to be adjusted. Since we are potentially handling the notification interrupt and also delivering an IPI to the guest in the same loop iteration, we need to update pending and handle any q->pending_count value before the xc->mfrr check, rather than at the end of the loop. Also, we need to update the queue pointers when we have processed and EOI-ed the notification interrupt, since we may not do it later. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org> |

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 Restructured Text 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.
