kvm_timer_update_state() is called when changing the phys timer configuration registers, either via vcpu reset, as a result of a trap from the guest, or when userspace programs the registers. phys_timer_emulate() is in turn called by kvm_timer_update_state() to either cancel an existing software timer, or program a new software timer, to emulate the behavior of a real phys timer, based on the change in configuration registers. Unfortunately, the interaction between these two functions left a small race; if the conceptual emulated phys timer should actually fire, but the soft timer hasn't executed its callback yet, we cancel the timer in phys_timer_emulate without injecting an irq. This only happens if the check in kvm_timer_update_state is called before the timer should fire, which is relatively unlikely, but possible. The solution is to update the state of the phys timer after calling phys_timer_emulate, which will pick up the pending timer state and update the interrupt value. Note that this leaves the opportunity of raising the interrupt twice, once in the just-programmed soft timer, and once in kvm_timer_update_state. Since this always happens synchronously with the VCPU execution, there is no harm in this, and the guest ever only sees a single timer interrupt.
