Subject: [PATCH] KVM: nVMX: Morph notification vector IRQ on nested VM-Enter
to pending PI

On successful nested VM-Enter, check for pending interrupts and convert the highest priority interrupt to a pending posted interrupt if it matches L2's notification vector. If the vCPU receives a notification interrupt before nested VM-Enter (assuming L1 disables IRQs before doing VM-Enter), the pending interrupt (for L1) should be recognized and processed as a posted interrupt when interrupts become unblocked after VM-Enter to L2.

This fixes a bug where L1/L2 will get stuck in an infinite loop if L1 is trying to inject an interrupt into L2 by setting the appropriate bit in L2's PIR and sending a self-IPI prior to VM-Enter (as opposed to KVM's method of manually moving the vector from PIR->vIRR/RVI). KVM will observe the IPI while the vCPU is in L1 context and so won't immediately morph it to a posted interrupt for L2. The pending interrupt will be seen by vmx_check_nested_events(), cause KVM to force an immediate exit after nested VM-Enter, and eventually be reflected to L1 as a VM-Exit. After handling the VM-Exit, L1 will see that L2 has a pending interrupt in PIR, send another IPI, and repeat until L2 is killed.

Note, posted interrupts require virtual interrupt deliveriy, and virtual interrupt delivery requires exit-on-interrupt, ergo interrupts will be unconditionally unmasked on VM-Enter if posted interrupts are enabled.
