Hi Marc,

Is below patch the right way for this?

yeah, that's more like it!

Now, we get to the critical point. Why do you need to keep this shadow
state for the interrupt?

The way I see it, you should set the line high when the overflow has
been registered, and set it low when the overflow condition has been
cleared by the guest. And nothing else.

Why do you have to do it twice??

The reason is that when guest clear the overflow register, it will trap 
to kvm and call kvm_pmu_sync_hwstate() as you see above. At this moment, 
the overflow register is still overflowed(that is some bit is still 1). 
So We need to use some flag to mark we already inject this interrupt. 
And if during guest handling the overflow, there is a new overflow 
happening, the pmu->irq_pending will be set ture by 
kvm_pmu_perf_overflow(), then it needs to inject this new interrupt, right?

I don't think so. This is a level interrupt, so the level should stay
high as long as the guest hasn't cleared all possible sources for that
interrupt.

For your example, the guest writes to PMOVSCLR to clear the overflow
caused by a given counter. If the status is now 0, the interrupt line
drops. If the status is still non zero, the line stays high. And I
believe that writing a 1 to PMOVSSET would actually trigger an
interrupt, or keep it high if it has already high.

In essence, do not try to maintain side state. I've been bitten.

Thanks,

Right, writing 1 to PMOVSSET will trigger an interrupt.

So on VM entry, it check if PMOVSSET is zero. If not, call 
kvm_vgic_inject_irq to set the level high. If so, set the level low.
On VM exit, it seems there is nothing to do.

It is even simpler than that:

- When you get an overflow, you inject an interrupt with the level set to 1.
- When the overflow register gets cleared, you inject the same interrupt
with the level set to 0.

I don't think you need to do anything else, and the world switch should
be left untouched.

But as Christoffer said before, it's not good to call
kvm_vgic_inject_irq directly in interrupt context. So if we just kick
the vcpu here and call kvm_vgic_inject_irq on VM entry, is this fine?

Possibly. I'm slightly worried that inject_irq itself is going to kick
the vcpu again for no good reason. I guess we'll find out (and maybe
we'll add a kvm_vgic_inject_irq_no_kick_please() helper...).

Yes, this will introduce a extra kick. What's the impact of kicking a
kicked vcpu?

And add a parameter "bool kick" for vgic_update_irq_pending ?

As long as you only kick yourself, it shouldn't be much (trying to
decipher vcpu_kick).

Given that we're completely rewriting the thing, I'd rather not add more
hacks to it if we can avoid it.

Give it a go, and we'll find out!

The behavior of vcpu_kick really depends on a number of things:

 - If you're kicking yourself, nothing happens.
 - If you're kicking a sleeping vcpu, wake it up
 - If you're kicking a running vcpu, send it a physical IPI
 - If the vcpu is not running, and not sleeping (so still runnable)
   don't do anything, just wait until it gets scheduled.
