[PATCH v2 10/11] virtio: console: fix locking around send_sigio_to_port()

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

 



send_sigio_to_port() checks the value of guest_connected, which we
always modify under the inbuf_lock; make sure invocations of
send_sigio_to_port() have take the inbuf_lock around the call.
