When a XEN_HVM guest uses the XEN PIRQ/Eventchannel mechanism, then
PCI/MSI[-X] masking is solely controlled by the hypervisor, but contrary to
XEN_PV guests this does not disable PCI/MSI[-X] masking in the PCI/MSI
layer.
This can lead to a situation where the PCI/MSI layer masks an MSI[-X]
interrupt and the hypervisor grants the write despite the fact that it
already requested the interrupt. As a consequence interrupt delivery on the
affected device is not happening ever.
Set pci_msi_ignore_mask to prevent that like it's done for XEN_PV guests
already.

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.
