A question on when pi_test_on() is set:

The old code will return 1 if detected (ses [1]), while the new code
does not. Would that matter? (IIUC that decides whether the vcpu will
continue to run?)

Above we have:

        if (!WARN_ON_ONCE(vcpu->pre_pcpu != -1)) {
                vcpu->pre_pcpu = vcpu->cpu;
                ...
        }

Then can here vcpu->pre_pcpu really be -1?

A general question to pre_block/post_block handling for PI:

I see that we are handling PI logic mostly in four places:

vmx_vcpu_pi_{load|put}
pi_{pre_post}_block

But do we really need the pre_block/post_block handling? Here's how I
understand when vcpu blocked:

- vcpu_block
  - ->pre_block
  - kvm_vcpu_block [1]
    - schedule()
      - kvm_sched_out
        - vmx_vcpu_pi_put [3]
      - (another process working) ...
      - kvm_sched_in
        - vmx_vcpu_pi_load [4]
  - ->post_block [2]

If so, [1] & [2] will definitely be paired with [3] & [4], then why we
need [3] & [4] at all?

(Though [3] & [4] will also be used when preemption happens, so they
 are required)

Please kindly figure out if I missed anything important...

Thanks,
