From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> This patch fixes a bug with cpu bound guest on kvm-s390. Sometimes it was impossible to deliver a signal to a spinning guest. We used preemption as a circumvention. The preemption notifiers called vcpu_load, which checked for pending signals and triggered a host intercept. But even with preemption, a sigkill was not delivered immediately. This patch changes the low level host interrupt handler to check for the SIE instruction, if TIF_WORK is set. In that case we change the instruction pointer of the return PSW to rerun the vcpu_run loop. The kvm code sees an intercept reason 0 if that happens. This patch adds accounting for these types of intercept as well. The advantages: - works with and without preemption - signals are delivered immediately - much better host latencies without preemption Acked-by: Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> |
