From: Dongli Zhang <dongli.zhang@oracle.com>
If an APICv status updated was pended while L2 was active, immediately
refresh vmcs01's controls instead of pending KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE as
kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() only calls into vendor code if a change is
necessary.
E.g. if APICv is inhibited, and then activated while L2 is running:
kvm_vcpu_update_apicv()
|
-> __kvm_vcpu_update_apicv()
|
-> apic->apicv_active = true
|
-> vmx_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl()
|
-> vmx->nested.update_vmcs01_apicv_status = true
|
-> return
Then L2 exits to L1:
__nested_vmx_vmexit()
|
-> kvm_make_request(KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE)
vcpu_enter_guest(): KVM_REQ_APICV_UPDATE
-> kvm_vcpu_update_apicv()
|
-> __kvm_vcpu_update_apicv()
|
-> return // because if (apic->apicv_active == activate)
