I forget if there are other bugs... > Well, the avic_handle_apic_id_update is called each time the AVIC is uninhibited, because while it is inhibited, the AVIC code doesn't track changes to APIC ID and such. Also there are many ways it is broken for example 1. a CPU can't move its APIC ID to a free slot due to (!new) check 2. If APIC ID is moved to a used slot, then the CPU that used that overwritten slot can't correctly move it, since its now not its slot, not to mention races. BTW, if you see a value in it, I can fix this code instead - a lock + going over all the apic ids, should be quite easy to implement. In case of two vCPUs using the same APIC ID, I can write non present entry to the table, so none will be able to be addressed, hoping that the situation is only temporary. Same can be done for IPIv.

AVIC is now inhibited if the guest changes apic id, thus remove that broken code. Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <mlevitsk@redhat.com> --- arch/x86/kvm/svm/avic.c | 35 ----------------------------------- 1 file changed, 35 deletions(-)
