Subject: KVM: lapic: Fixup LDR on load in x2apic
From: Dr. David Alan Gilbert <[email protected]>
commit 12806ba937382fdfdbad62a399aa2dce65c10fcd upstream.
In x2apic mode the LDR is fixed based on the ID rather than separately loadable like it was before x2. When kvm_apic_set_state is called, the base is set, and if it has the X2APIC_ENABLE flag set then the LDR is calculated; however that value gets overwritten by the memcpy a few lines below overwriting it with the value that came from userland.
The symptom is a lack of EOI after loading the state (e.g. after a QEMU migration) and is due to the EOI bitmap being wrong due to the incorrect LDR. This was seen with a Win2016 guest under Qemu with irqchip=split whose USB mouse didn't work after a VM migration.
This corresponds to RH bug:
