Indeed. There was a lot of rework of MSI-X. Iirc one of your
colleagues had actually narrowed it down a while ago, but I can't
seem to find that mail right now. Nor did it really help understand
what's going wrong (or else we would likely have found a fix for it
already). My primary suspicion was that the interrupt doesn't get
enabled when it should, but the respective fix didn't help that
case (while it did help others). Hence my continued request for
someone being able to observe the problem to simply log guest
actions and what the hypervisor does for them (plus of course
provide all relevant debug information, like debug key output of
interest, for a guest in the broken state).
