[PATCH 6.13 178/207] KVM: x86: Snapshot the hosts DEBUGCTL after disabling IRQs

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

 



6.13-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 189ecdb3e112da703ac0699f4ec76aa78122f911 upstream.

Snapshot the host's DEBUGCTL after disabling IRQs, as perf can toggle
debugctl bits from IRQ context, e.g. when enabling/disabling events via
smp_call_function_single().  Taking the snapshot (long) before IRQs are
disabled could result in KVM effectively clobbering DEBUGCTL due to using
a stale snapshot.
