[PATCH v2 1/1] s390/vfio-ap: fix circular lockdep when setting/clearing crypto masks

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

 



This patch fixes a circular locking dependency in the CI introduced by
commit f21916ec4826 ("s390/vfio-ap: clean up vfio_ap resources when KVM
pointer invalidated"). The lockdep only occurs when starting a Secure
Execution guest. Crypto virtualization (vfio_ap) is not yet supported for
SE guests; however, in order to avoid CI errors, this fix is being
provided.

The circular lockdep was introduced when the masks in the guest's APCB
were taken under the matrix_dev->lock. While the lock is definitely
needed to protect the setting/unsetting of the KVM pointer, it is not
necessarily critical for setting the masks, so this will not be done under
protection of the matrix_dev->lock.

Fixes: f21916ec4826 ("s390/vfio-ap: clean up vfio_ap resources when KVM pointer invalidated")
