From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@xxxxxxxxxxx> watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#5 stuck for 22s! [warn_test:3089] irq event stamp: 20532 hardirqs last enabled at (20531): [<ffffffff8e9b6908>] restore_regs_and_iret+0x0/0x1d hardirqs last disabled at (20532): [<ffffffff8e9b7ae8>] apic_timer_interrupt+0x98/0xb0 softirqs last enabled at (8266): [<ffffffff8e9badc6>] __do_softirq+0x206/0x4c1 softirqs last disabled at (8253): [<ffffffff8e083918>] irq_exit+0xf8/0x100 CPU: 5 PID: 3089 Comm: warn_test Tainted: G OE 4.13.0-rc3+ #8 RIP: 0010:kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page+0x72/0x4b0 [kvm] Call Trace: make_mmu_pages_available.isra.120+0x71/0xc0 [kvm] kvm_mmu_load+0x1cf/0x410 [kvm] kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x1316/0x1bf0 [kvm] kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x340/0x700 [kvm] ? kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x340/0x700 [kvm] ? __fget+0xfc/0x210 do_vfs_ioctl+0xa4/0x6a0 ? __fget+0x11d/0x210 SyS_ioctl+0x79/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x23/0xc2 ? __this_cpu_preempt_check+0x13/0x20 This can be reproduced readily by ept=N and running syzkaller tests since many syzkaller testcases don't setup any memory regions. However, if ept=Y rmode identity map will be created, then kvm_mmu_calculate_mmu_pages() will extend the number of VM's mmu pages to at least KVM_MIN_ALLOC_MMU_PAGES which just hide the issue. I saw the scenario kvm->arch.n_max_mmu_pages == 0 && kvm->arch.n_used_mmu_pages == 1, so there is one active mmu page on the list, kvm_mmu_prepare_zap_page() fails to zap any pages, however prepare_zap_oldest_mmu_page() always returns true. It incurs infinite loop in make_mmu_pages_available() which causes mmu->lock softlockup. This patch fixes it by setting the return value of prepare_zap_oldest_mmu_page() according to whether or not there is mmu page zapped. In addition, we bail out immediately if there is no available mmu page to alloc root page.
