Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 02/27] x86/apic: Drop savic_eoi() in favor of native_apic_msr_eoi() for Secure AVIC
Date: Wed,  8 Jul 2026 12:02:00 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <36c039713c4b03c87b636635cb4c1f8b98c15eff.1783490022.git.naveen@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1783490022.git.naveen@kernel.org>

Drop savic_eoi() in favor of using the native helper that writes to the
APIC_EOI MSR. savic_eoi() was added mainly to be able to handle
level-triggered interrupts. However, it relies on APIC_TMR indicating a
vector to be level-triggered, but APIC_TMR can never have a bit set
since it is only updated when the LAPIC accepts a level-triggered
interrupt. In the case of a Secure AVIC SEV-SNP guest, all
level-triggered interrupt sources are in the VMM (emulated IOAPIC
primarily) and KVM accepts them on behalf of the guest resulting in the
APIC_TMR in KVM APIC backing page having a bit set. This is never seen
by the guest, which has its own private APIC backing page. As such, the
savic_eoi() handler is dead code. Remove it.

Fixes: 43b6687ac877 ("x86/apic: Handle EOI writes for Secure AVIC guests")
