On SVM, if preemption happens right after the call to finish_rcuwait but before call to kvm_arch_vcpu_unblocking on SVM/AVIC, it itself will re-enable AVIC, and then we will try to re-enable it again in kvm_arch_vcpu_unblocking which will lead to a warning in __avic_vcpu_load. The same problem can happen if the vCPU is preempted right after the call to kvm_arch_vcpu_blocking but before the call to prepare_to_rcuwait and in this case, we will end up with AVIC enabled during sleep - Ooops.

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.
