Documentation/virtual/kvm/api.txt states:
NOTE: For KVM_EXIT_IO, KVM_EXIT_MMIO, KVM_EXIT_OSI, KVM_EXIT_PAPR and
KVM_EXIT_EPR the corresponding operations are complete (and guest
state is consistent) only after userspace has re-entered the
kernel with KVM_RUN. The kernel side will first finish incomplete
operations and then check for pending signals. Userspace can
re-enter the guest with an unmasked signal pending to complete
pending operations.
Because guest state may be inconsistent, starting state migration after
an IO exit without first completing IO may result in test failures, e.g.
a proposed change to KVM's handling of %rip in its fast PIO handling[1]
will cause the new VM, i.e. the post-migration VM, to have its %rip set
to the IN instruction that triggered KVM_EXIT_IO, leading to a test
assertion due to a stage mismatch.
For simplicitly, require KVM_CAP_IMMEDIATE_EXIT to complete IO and skip
the test if it's not available. The addition of KVM_CAP_IMMEDIATE_EXIT
predates the state selftest by more than a year.
