Subject: Re: [PATCH v3 1/4] KVM: Recover IRTE to remapped mode if the
interrupt is not single-destination

When the interrupt is not single destination any more, we need
to change back IRTE to remapped mode explicitly.

I am still feel weird with this change: according the semantic of VT-d
posted interrupt, the interrupt will injected to guest through posted
notification and /proc/interrupts shows the same meaning. But now,
without being aware of user, the interrupt changes to legacy way and it
appears on different entry on /proc/interrupts. It looks weird.

I don't think it has problem here, IMO, this is exactly how it works.
There should be different entry for the interrupts in VT-d PI mode
and leagcy mode.

I am not saying any problem here. Just feel weird. From a normal user's point, he has turned on the VT-d pi and according the semantic of VT-d pi, he should not observe the interrupt through legacy mode, but now he do see it. Maybe print out a message here will be helpful, like what you did for disabled lapic found during irq injection.


For VT-d PI mode, it is delivered by notification event, for legacy mode,
it is delivered by VFIO.

Thanks,
Feng
