The kvm_riscv_vcpu_timer_pending() checks per-VCPU next_cycles
and per-VCPU software injected VS timer interrupt. This function
returns incorrect value when Sstc is available because the per-VCPU
next_cycles are only updated by kvm_riscv_vcpu_timer_save() called
from kvm_arch_vcpu_put(). As a result, when Sstc is available the
VCPU does not block properly upon WFI traps.
To fix the above issue, we introduce kvm_riscv_vcpu_timer_sync()
which will update per-VCPU next_cycles upon every VM exit instead
of kvm_riscv_vcpu_timer_save().

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.
