According to intel SDM 27.2.3, APIC-access VM exit also is possible during event delivery, but i don't see KVM considers it in vmx_handle_exit(). Am i missing something? 27.2.3 Information for VM Exits During Event Delivery Section 24.9.3 defined fields containing information for VM exits that occur while delivering an event through the IDT and as a result of any of the following cases: • A fault occurs during event delivery and causes a VM exit (because the bit associated with the fault is set to 1 in the exception bitmap). • A task switch is invoked through a task gate in the IDT. The VM exit occurs due to the task switch only after the initial checks of the task switch pass (see Section 25.4.2). • Event delivery causes an APIC-access VM exit (see Section 29.4). • An EPT violation, EPT misconfiguration, or page-modification log-full event that occurs during event delivery.

With PML enabled, guest will shut down if a PML full VMEXIT occurs during event delivery. According to Intel SDM 27.2.3, PML full VMEXIT can occur when event is being delivered through IDT, so KVM should not exit to user space with error. Instead, it should let EXIT_REASON_PML_FULL go through and the event will be re-injected on the next VMENTRY.
