Subject: [PATCH] KVM: MMU: Don't read pdptrs with mmu spinlock held in mmu_alloc_roots
Date: Tue,  4 May 2010 13:03:50 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1272967430-6191-1-git-send-email-avi@redhat.com> (raw)

On svm, kvm_read_pdptr() may require reading guest memory, which can sleep.

Push the spinlock into mmu_alloc_roots(), and only take it after we've read
the pdptr.

Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>

Marcelo, dropping and re-acquiring the lock before mmu_sync_roots(), is fine,
yes?
