It could be explained that at reboot time, the eflag.IF is cleared, so no matter how PIC/APIC beahivors at that stage, it doesn't matter. Later on, guest will reset those chips and then keep forwarding... Some other patches fixed the issue from KVM-36, or anybody has more finding?
It is good that I don't need to push the kernel device reset patch out that soon, but we still need to do so for a graceful reset especially kernel devices need to be reseted since guest OS won't reset it at begining when interrupt is enabled. So I will push the patch eventually but can spend more time in NIC issues that is very possible caused by kernel apic stuff :-) BTW, if you know any issues that is highly suspected to kernel irqchip series, would u please repost them to me so that I can track clearly ? NIC issue is in investigation now. Thanks, Eddie ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
