From 2a289aed3fcd7fdd6d5c8def0f992d31a0754094 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Christopherson Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2025 09:41:56 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Always set mp_state to RUNNABLE on wakeup from HLT When emulating HLT and a wake event is already pending, explicitly mark the vCPU RUNNABLE (via kvm_set_mp_state()) instead of assuming the vCPU is already in the appropriate state. Barring a KVM bug, it should be impossible for the vCPU to be in a non-RUNNABLE state, but there is no advantage to relying on that to hold true, and ensuring the vCPU is made RUNNABLE avoids non-deterministic behavior with respect to pv_unhalted. E.g. if the vCPU is not already RUNNABLE, then depending on when pv_unhalted is set, KVM could either leave the vCPU in the non-RUNNABLE state (set before __kvm_emulate_halt()), or transition the vCPU to HALTED and then RUNNABLE (pv_unhalted set after the kvm_vcpu_has_events() check).
