3.2.51-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 84ca7a8e45dafb49cd5ca90a343ba033e2885c17 upstream. The sizeof() argument in init_evtchn_cpu_bindings() is incorrect resulting in only the first 64 (or 32 in 32-bit guests) ports having their bindings being initialized to VCPU 0. In most cases this does not cause a problem as request_irq() will set the irq affinity which will set the correct local per-cpu mask. However, if the request_irq() is called on a VCPU other than 0, there is a window between the unmasking of the event and the affinity being set were an event may be lost because it is not locally unmasked on any VCPU. If request_irq() is called on VCPU 0 then local irqs are disabled during the window and the race does not occur. Fix this by initializing all NR_EVENT_CHANNEL bits in the local per-cpu masks.
