Abstract
A hypervisor identifies one or more interrupts of a networking device for a virtual machine. The hypervisor queues the interrupts and determines the execution state of at least one virtual processor of a virtual machine. Upon determining that the execution state of the virtual processor is active, the hypervisor continues queuing the interrupts of the networking device. Upon determining that the execution state of the virtual processor has changed to idle, the hypervisor provides the queued interrupts to the virtual machine.
