Title:
  KVM IPI Virtualization support for SPR

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  IPI virtualization targets to make the processor emulate the write to APIC 
registers that would send IPIs in virtualized system. 
  VMX provide new VM-execution control and VMCS field to support IPI 
virtualization which can eliminate APIC-Write VM-exit.
  The processor sets the bit corresponding to the vector in target vCPU's PIR 
and may send a notification (IPI) specified by NDST 
  and NV fields in target vCPU's PID. It is similar to what IOMMU engine does 
when dealing with posted interrupt from devices.

  IPI Virtualization is approved in SPR/EGS CCB and  it is supposed to
  be enabled in C-step or later (perhaps D-step).
