110% agree.

I personally don't know if I prefer this or the original patch.

While reviwing this, I noticed that we have this code:

static bool svm_apic_init_signal_blocked(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu)
{
struct vcpu_svm *svm = to_svm(vcpu);
/*
* TODO: Last condition latch INIT signals on vCPU when
* vCPU is in guest-mode and vmcb12 defines intercept on INIT.
* To properly emulate the INIT intercept,
* svm_check_nested_events() should call nested_svm_vmexit()
* if an INIT signal is pending.
*/
return !gif_set(svm) ||
(vmcb_is_intercept(&svm->vmcb->control, INTERCEPT_INIT));
}
Is this workaround still needed? svm_check_nested_events does check the apic's INIT/SIPI status.

Currently the '.apic_init_signal_blocked' is called from kvm_vcpu_latch_init which itself is
currently called from kvm_vcpu_latch_init which happens after we would vmexit if INIT is intercepted by nested
hypervisor.

Best regards,
Maxim Levitsky
