According to the recent update in the AMD IOMMU spec [1], the IsRun and Destination fields of the Interrupt Remapping Table Entry (IRTE) are not cached by the IOMMU hardware. Therefore, do not issue the INVALIDATE_INTERRUPT_TABLE command when updating IRTE[IsRun] and IRTE[Destination] when IRTE[GuestMode]=1, which should help improve IOMMU AVIC/x2AVIC performance.

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.
