I noticed that apic test from kvm-unit-tests always hangs on my EPYC 7401P, the hanging test nmi-after-sti is trying to deliver 30000 NMIs and tracing shows that we're sometimes able to deliver a few but never all. When we're trying to inject an NMI we may fail to do so immediately for various reasons, however, we still need to inject it so enable_nmi_window() arms nmi_singlestep mode. #DB occurs as expected, but we're not checking for pending NMIs before entering the guest and unless there's a different event to process, the NMI will never get delivered. Make KVM_REQ_EVENT request on the vCPU from db_interception() to make sure pending NMIs are checked and possibly injected.

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.
