From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx> Acquire kvm->srcu for the duration of mapping eVMCS to fix a bug where accessing hv assist page derefences ->memslots without holding ->srcu or ->slots_lock. It can be reproduced by running KVM's evmcs_test selftest. ============================= WARNING: suspicious RCU usage 5.6.0-rc1+ #53 Tainted: G W IOE ----------------------------- ./include/linux/kvm_host.h:623 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage! other info that might help us debug this: rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1 1 lock held by evmcs_test/8507: #0: ffff9ddd156d00d0 (&vcpu->mutex){+.+.}, at: kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x85/0x680 [kvm] stack backtrace: CPU: 6 PID: 8507 Comm: evmcs_test Tainted: G W IOE 5.6.0-rc1+ #53 Hardware name: Dell Inc.
