This adds code to ensure that after a XIVE or XICS-on-XIVE KVM device is closed, KVM will not try to enable or disable any of the escalation interrupts for the VCPUs. We don't have to worry about races between clearing the pointers and use of the pointers by the XIVE context push/pull code, because the callers hold the vcpu->mutex, which is also taken by the KVM_RUN code. Therefore the vcpu cannot be entering or exiting the guest concurrently. Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@ozlabs.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
