[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2] interrupts: allow guest to set and clear MSI-X mask bit



Guest needs the ability to enable and disable MSI-X interrupts
by setting the MSI-X control bit. Currently, a write to MSI-X
mask bit by the guest is silently ignored.

A likely scenario is where we have a 82599 SR-IOV nic passed
through to a guest. From the guest if you do

  ifconfig <ETH_DEV> down
  ifconfig <ETH_DEV> up

the interrupts remain masked.  The the mask bit for the VF is
being set by the PF performing a reset (at the request of the VF).
However, interrupts are enabled by VF driver by clearing the mask
bit by writing directly to BAR3 region containing the MSI-X table.

From dom0, we can verify that
interrupts are being masked using 'xl debug-keys M'.

Initially, guest was allowed to modify MSI-X bit.
Later this behaviour was changed.
See changeset 74c213c506afcd74a8556dd092995fd4dc38b225.
