Under XIVE, the ESB pages of an interrupt are used for interrupt management (EOI) and triggering. They are made available to guests through a mapping of the XIVE KVM device. When a device is passed-through, the passthru_irq helpers, kvmppc_xive_set_mapped() and kvmppc_xive_clr_mapped(), clear the ESB pages of the guest IRQ number being mapped and let the VM fault handler repopulate with the correct page. The ESB pages are mapped at offset 4 (KVM_XIVE_ESB_PAGE_OFFSET) in the KVM device mapping. Unfortunately, this offset was not taken into account when clearing the pages. This lead to issues with the passthrough devices for which the interrupts were not functional under some guest configuration (tg3 and single CPU) or in any configuration (e1000e adapter).

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.
