Guest tests it using a single est and clear operation - this is necessary so that host can detect interrupt nesting - and if set, it can skip the EOI MSR. I run a simple microbenchmark to show exit reduction (note: for testing, need to apply follow-up patch 'kvm: host side for eoi optimization' + a qemu patch I posted separately, on host): Before: Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1s': 47,357 kvm:kvm_entry [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_hypercall [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_hv_hypercall [99.98%] 5,001 kvm:kvm_pio [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_cpuid [99.98%] 22,124 kvm:kvm_apic [99.98%] 49,849 kvm:kvm_exit [99.98%] 21,115 kvm:kvm_inj_virq [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_inj_exception [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_page_fault [99.98%] 22,937 kvm:kvm_msr [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_cr [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_pic_set_irq [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_apic_ipi [99.98%] 22,207 kvm:kvm_apic_accept_irq [99.98%] 22,421 kvm:kvm_eoi [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_pv_eoi [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmrun [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_intercepts [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmexit [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmexit_inject [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_intr_vmexit [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_invlpga [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_skinit [99.99%] 57 kvm:kvm_emulate_insn [99.99%] 0 kvm:vcpu_match_mmio [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_userspace_exit [99.99%] 2 kvm:kvm_set_irq [99.99%] 2 kvm:kvm_ioapic_set_irq [99.99%] 23,609 kvm:kvm_msi_set_irq [99.99%] 1 kvm:kvm_ack_irq [99.99%] 131 kvm:kvm_mmio [99.99%] 226 kvm:kvm_fpu [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_age_page [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_try_async_get_page [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_doublefault [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_not_present [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_ready [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_completed 1.002100578 seconds time elapsed After: Performance counter stats for 'sleep 1s': 28,354 kvm:kvm_entry [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_hypercall [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_hv_hypercall [99.98%] 1,347 kvm:kvm_pio [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_cpuid [99.98%] 1,931 kvm:kvm_apic [99.98%] 29,595 kvm:kvm_exit [99.98%] 24,884 kvm:kvm_inj_virq [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_inj_exception [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_page_fault [99.98%] 1,986 kvm:kvm_msr [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_cr [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_pic_set_irq [99.98%] 0 kvm:kvm_apic_ipi [99.99%] 25,953 kvm:kvm_apic_accept_irq [99.99%] 26,132 kvm:kvm_eoi [99.99%] 26,593 kvm:kvm_pv_eoi [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmrun [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_intercepts [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmexit [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_vmexit_inject [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_nested_intr_vmexit [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_invlpga [99.99%] 0 kvm:kvm_skinit [99.99%] 284 kvm:kvm_emulate_insn [99.99%] 68 kvm:vcpu_match_mmio [99.99%] 68 kvm:kvm_userspace_exit [99.99%] 2 kvm:kvm_set_irq [99.99%] 2 kvm:kvm_ioapic_set_irq [99.99%] 28,288 kvm:kvm_msi_set_irq [99.99%] 1 kvm:kvm_ack_irq [99.99%] 131 kvm:kvm_mmio [100.00%] 588 kvm:kvm_fpu [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_age_page [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_try_async_get_page [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_doublefault [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_not_present [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_ready [100.00%] 0 kvm:kvm_async_pf_completed 1.002039622 seconds time elapsed We see that # of exits is almost halved.
