x86 vHPET interrupt injection errors

ISSUE DESCRIPTION The High Precision Event Timer HPET can be configured to deliver interrupts in one of three different modes - through legacy interrupts; through the IO-APIC; or optionally via a method similar to PCI MSI. The last mode is optional and not implemented by Xen. However, of the firs...

x86 PVH guest without LAPIC may DoS the host

ISSUE DESCRIPTION So far, x86 PVH guests can be configured with or without Local APICs. Configurations with Local APICs are identical to x86 HVM guests, and will use as much hardware acceleration support as possible. Configurations without Local APICs try to turn off all hardware acceleration, an...
