What happens if there is a L2->L0->L2 exit on the target VCPU, and the
guest exits before apic->send_IPI_mask sends the IPI?

The L1 hypervisor might "know" somehow that there cannot be a concurrent
L2->L1->L2 exit, and not do the equivalent of KVM's

        kvm_make_request(KVM_REQ_EVENT, vcpu);

after it sets ON.

So I think you have to do something like

static bool vmx_is_nested_posted_interrupt(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu,
                                           int vector)
{
        return (is_guest_mode(vcpu) &&
                vector == to_vmx(vcpu)->nested.posted_intr_nv);
}

and in vmx_deliver_posted_interrupt:

        r = 0;
        if (!vmx_is_nested_posted_interrupt(vcpu, vector)) {
                if (pi_test_and_set_pir(vector, &vmx->pi_desc))
                        return;

                r = pi_test_and_set_on(&vmx->pi_desc);
        }
        kvm_make_request(KVM_REQ_EVENT, vcpu);
#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
        if (!r && (vcpu->mode == IN_GUEST_MODE))
                apic->send_IPI_mask(get_cpu_mask(vcpu->cpu),
                                POSTED_INTR_VECTOR);
        else
#endif
                kvm_vcpu_kick(vcpu);


What do you think?
