[PATCH 1/1] vhost: Protect the virtqueue from being cleared whilst still in use

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

 



vhost_vsock_handle_tx_kick() already holds the mutex during its call
to vhost_get_vq_desc().  All we have to do here is take the same lock
during virtqueue clean-up and we mitigate the reported issues.

Also WARN() as a precautionary measure.  The purpose of this is to
capture possible future race conditions which may pop up over time.
