[PATCH v2 07/14] KVM: x86: remove unnecessary uses of PIT state lock

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

 



- kvm_create_pit had to lock only because it exposed kvm->arch.vpit very
  early, but initialization doesn't use kvm->arch.vpit since the last
  patch, so we can drop locking.
- kvm_free_pit is only run after there are no users of KVM and therefore
  is the sole actor.
- Locking in kvm_vm_ioctl_reinject doesn't do anything, because reinject
  is only protected at that place.
- kvm_pit_reset isn't used anywhere and its locking can be dropped if we
  hide it.

Removing useless locking allows to see what actually is being protected
by PIT state lock (values accessible from the guest).
