From dd0ef128669c29734a197ca9195e7ab64e20ba2c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ake Koomsin Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2022 20:13:03 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] e1000e: Fix possible interrupt loss when using MSI Commit "e1000e: Prevent MSI/MSI-X storms" introduced msi_causes_pending to prevent interrupt storms problem. It was tested with MSI-X. In case of MSI, the guest can rely solely on interrupts to clear ICR. Upon clearing all pending interrupts, msi_causes_pending gets cleared. However, when e1000e_itr_should_postpone() in e1000e_send_msi() returns true, MSI never gets fired by e1000e_intrmgr_on_throttling_timer() because msi_causes_pending is still set. This results in interrupt loss. To prevent this, we need to clear msi_causes_pending when MSI is going to get fired by the throttling timer. The guest can then receive interrupts eventually.
