Subject: [PATCH v5 2/3] genirq: introduce irq_update_devid()
Date:   Fri, 30 Aug 2019 16:41:43 +0800

Precedence: bulk

Sometimes, only the dev_id field of irqaction needs to be changed.

E.g. KVM VM with device passthru via VFIO may switch the interrupt
injection path between KVM irqfd and userspace eventfd. These two
paths share the same interrupt number and handler for the same msi
vector of a device, only with different 'dev_id's referencing to
different fds' contexts. Set interrupt affinity in this VM is a way
to trigger the path switching.

Currently, VFIO uses a free-then-request-irq way for the path switching.
There is a time window between free_irq() and request_irq() where the
target IRTE is invalid. So, in-flight interrupts (buffering in hardware
layer and unfortunately cannot be synchronized in software) can cause
DMAR faults and even worse, this VM may hang in waiting IO completion.

By using irq_update_devid(), this issue can be avoided since IRTE will
not be invalidated during the whole process.
