commit 321c5658 upstream. Non maskable interrupts (NMI) are preferred to interrupts in current implementation. If a NMI is pending and NMI is blocked by the result of nmi_allowed(), pending interrupt is not injected and enable_irq_window() is not executed, even if interrupts injection is allowed. In old kernel (e.g. 2.6.32), schedule() is often called in NMI context. In this case, interrupts are needed to execute iret that intends end of NMI. The flag of blocking new NMI is not cleared until the guest execute the iret, and interrupts are blocked by pending NMI. Due to this, iret can't be invoked in the guest, and the guest is starved until block is cleared by some events (e.g. canceling injection). This patch injects pending interrupts, when it's allowed, even if NMI is blocked. And, If an interrupts is pending after executing inject_pending_event(), enable_irq_window() is executed regardless of NMI pending counter. Signed-off-by:
