This doesn't seem to fix the problems I'm seeing here with a KVM/arm64
guest (the issue exists with and without this patch)
On initial boot:
<quote>
Loading Linux 5.7.0-1-arm64 ...
Loading initial ramdisk ...
qemu-system-aarch64: virtio-blk failed to set guest notifier (-16), ensure
-accel kvm is set.
qemu-system-aarch64: virtio_bus_start_ioeventfd: failed. Fallback to userspace
(slower).
qemu-system-aarch64: virtio-scsi: Failed to set guest notifiers (-16), ensure
-accel kvm is set.
qemu-system-aarch64: virtio_bus_start_ioeventfd: failed. Fallback to userspace
(slower).

The guest is functional though. However, on reboot:
<quote>
Loading Linux 5.7.0-1-arm64 ...
Loading initial ramdisk ...
qemu-system-aarch64: ../hw/pci/msix.c:622: msix_unset_vector_notifiers:
Assertion `dev->msix_vector_use_notifier && dev->msix_vector_release_notifier'
failed.
</quote>
Reverting d5d24d859c fixes the issue. For the record, my qemu command
line:
/home/maz/qemu/build/qemu-system-aarch64 -m 1G -smp 8 -cpu host,aarch64=on
-machine virt,accel=kvm,gic-version=host -nographic -drive
if=pflash,format=raw,readonly=on,file=/usr/share/AAVMF/AAVMF_CODE.fd -drive
if=pflash,format=raw,file=bullseye/bBwcgtDY2UwXklV6.fd -netdev user,id=hostnet0
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0 -drive

Thanks,
