The mapping only makes sense for devices that have their interrupt
forwarded to a vcpu, where the expected flow is that the interrupt
is taken on the host with a normal interrupt handler and then
injected in the guest (you still have to manage the active state
though). The basic assumption is that such a device is entirely
owned by KVM.

Here, you're abusing the mapping interface: you don't have an
interrupt handler (the host SPE driver owns it), the interrupt
isn't forwarded, and yet you're messing with the active state.
None of that is expected, and you are in uncharted territory
as far as KVM is concerned.

What bothers me the most is that this looks a lot like a previous
implementation of the timers, and we had all the problems in the
world to keep track of the interrupt state *and* have a reasonable
level of performance (hitting the redistributor on the fast path
is a performance killer).

You can't completely rule out the host getting interrupted. Even if you
set
PMBSR_EL1.S to zero, there is no guarantee that the host will not
observe
the interrupt anyway (the GIC architecture doesn't tell you how quickly
it will be retired, if ever). The host driver already checks for this
anyway.

What you need to ensure is that PMBSR_EL1.S being set on guest entry
doesn't immediately kick you out of the guest and prevent forward
progress. This is why you need to manage the active state.

The real question is: how quickly do you want to react to a SPE
interrupt firing while in a guest?

If you want to take it into account as soon as it fires, then you need
to eagerly save/restore the active state together with the SPE state on
each entry/exit, and performance will suffer. This is what you are
currently doing.

If you're OK with evaluating the interrupt status on exit, but without
the interrupt itself causing an exit, then you can simply manage it
as a purely virtual interrupt, and just deal with the active state
in load/put (set the interrupt as active on load, clear it on put).

Given that SPE interrupts always indicate that profiling has stopped,
this only affects the size of the black hole, and I'm inclined to do
the latter.
