[PATCH v2 08/15] KVM: arm64: Protect stage-2 traversal with RCU

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The use of RCU is necessary to safely change the stage-2 page tables in
parallel. Acquire and release the RCU read lock when traversing the page
tables.

Use the _raw() flavor of rcu_dereference when changes to the page tables
are otherwise protected from parallel software walkers (e.g. holding the
write lock).
