After single-stepping an instruction that generates an interrupt, GDB ends up on the second instruction of the respective interrupt handler. The reason is that vcpu_pre_run() manually delivers the interrupt, and then __vcpu_run() runs the first handler instruction using the CPUSTAT_P flag. This causes a KVM_SINGLESTEP exit on the second handler instruction. Fix by delaying the KVM_SINGLESTEP exit until after the manual interrupt delivery.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
