This looks dodgy. Nothing seems to prevent userspace from setting the
mp_state to RUNNING in parallel with this, as only the vcpu mutex is
held when this ioctl is issued.
It looks to me that what you want is what lock_all_vcpus() does
(Alexandru has a patch moving it out of the vgic code as part of his
SPE series).
It is also pretty unclear what the interaction with userspace is once
you have released the lock. If the VMM starts a vcpu other than the
suspending one, what is its state? The spec doesn't see to help
here. I can see two options:
- either all the vcpus have the same reset state applied to them as
they come up, unless they are started with CPU_ON by a vcpu that has
already booted (but there is a single 'context_id' provided, and I
fear this is going to confuse the OS)...
- or only the suspending vcpu can resume the system, and we must fail
a change of mp_state for the other vcpus.
What do you think?

I have mixed feelings about this. The vcpu has reset before being in
WFI, while it really should be the other way around and userspace
could rely on observing the transition.
What breaks if you change this?
Thanks,
