Currently, the fast path of kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast() doesn't set the index bits in the target vCPU's evtchn_pending_sel, because it only has a userspace virtual address with which to do so. It just sets them in the kernel, and kvm_xen_has_interrupt() then completes the delivery to the actual vcpu_info structure when the vCPU runs. Using a gfn_to_pfn_cache allows kvm_xen_set_evtchn_fast() to do the full delivery in the common case. Clean up the fallback case too, by moving the deferred delivery out into a separate kvm_xen_inject_pending_events() function which isn't ever called in atomic contexts as __kvm_xen_has_interrupt() is.

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.
