Subject: [PATCH v4 9/9] s390/vfio_ccw: implement a crw lock
Date: Sat, 25 Jul 2026 17:27:05 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260725152705.3958100-10-farman@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260725152705.3958100-1-farman@linux.ibm.com>
Unlike the channel_program struct, which covers synchronous I/O
submissions and asynchronous interrupts, the CRW region relies
exclusively on asynchronous events coming from hardware.
Implement a lock to manage the list of those payloads, to ensure
they are read cohesively.
Fixes: 3f02cb2fd9d2 ("vfio-ccw: Wire up the CRW irq and CRW region")
