[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xen: do not loose level interrupt notifications



PV on HVM guests can loose level interrupts coming from emulated
devices: we are missing code to retry to inject a pirq in the guest if
it corresponds to a level interrupt and the interrupt has been raised
while the guest is servicing the first one.

The same thing could also happen with PV guests, including dom0, even
though it is much more unlikely. In case of PV guests the scenario would
be the following:

1) a device raises a level interrupt and xen injects it into the
guest;

2) the guest is temporarely stuck: it does not ack it or eoi it;

3) the xen timer kicks in and eois the interrupt;

4) the device thinks it is all fine and sends a second interrupt;

5) Xen fails to inject the second interrupt into the guest because the
guest has still the event channel pending bit set;

at this point the guest looses the second interrupt notification, that
is not supposed to happen with level interrupts and it might cause
problems with some devices.
