This are bits in upid.status, right? So why can't the comment above these defines says so and why can't the names not reflect that?
I'll fix this.

Will do.

+}; + +struct uintr_receiver { + struct uintr_upid_ctx *upid_ctx; +};So we need a struct to wrap a pointer to another struct. Why?
The struct will have more members added later. Should the wrapper be created then? I didn't want to add members that are not used in this patch.

+inline bool uintr_arch_enabled(void)What's this arch_enabled indirection for? Is this used anywhere in non-architecture code?
I'll remove this indirection. It is a remnant of some older code that had uintr_fd managed outside of the x86 code.

I apologize again. This comment is no longer valid.

Got it. I'll evaluate the use of fpregs_lock() at all places.

I'll fix this and other usages of get_xsave_addr(). Thanks, Sohil
