[PATCH 5.17 129/146] KVM: x86: Dont re-acquire SRCU lock in complete_emulated_io()

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

 



From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 2d08935682ac5f6bfb70f7e6844ec27d4a245fa4 upstream.

Don't re-acquire SRCU in complete_emulated_io() now that KVM acquires the
lock in kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run().  More importantly, don't overwrite
vcpu->srcu_idx.  If the index acquired by complete_emulated_io() differs
from the one acquired by kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run(), KVM will effectively
leak a lock and hang if/when synchronize_srcu() is invoked for the
relevant grace period.

Fixes: 8d25b7beca7e ("KVM: x86: pull kvm->srcu read-side to kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run")
