We enter guest with local_irq_disable() which means soft disabled, when do we hard-disable interrupts? If we follow host exception handlers model they set PACA_IRQ_EE/DEC/DBELL but not PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS. Can you give it a try to see how KVM behaves with PACA_IRQ_HARD_DIS?

That does look like the right thing to do indeed.

I meant the real caller, who's calling local_irq_restore(). I'm not sure what you mean, arch_local_irq_restore() is called indirectly by local_irq_enable() in our case from handle_exit(). -Mike -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

A change in the generic code highlighted that we were running with IRQs (soft) enabled on Book3E 64-bit when trying to restart interrupts from handle_exit(). This is a lesson to configure lockdep often :) There is no reason to exit guest with soft_enabled == 1, a local_irq_enable() call will do this for us so get rid of kvmppc_layz_ee() calls. With this fix we eliminate irqs_disabled() warnings and some guest and host hangs revealed under stress tests, but guests still exhibit some unresponsiveness. The unresponsiveness has to do with the fact that arch_local_irq_restore() does not guarantees to hard enable interrupts. To do so replace exception function calls like timer_interrupt() with irq_happened flags. The local_irq_enable() call takes care of replaying them and lets the interrupts hard enabled.
