Subject: [PATCH v3 06/12] KVM: x86: Ensure runtime reads of disabled_quirks are resolved once
Date: Tue, 30 Jun 2026 15:26:01 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260630222607.497895-7-seanjc@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260630222607.497895-1-seanjc@google.com>

Wrap the sole reader of disabled_quirks with READ_ONCE(), and wrap the
post-VM-creation write to disabled_quirks with WRITE_ONCE(), to ensure
checking the status of a quirk doesn't re-read disabled_quirks *if* the
caller needs such a guarantee.  This will allow splitting the "fast" MMU
zap into front and back halves, without potentially skipping the back
half if SLOT_ZAP_ALL were concurrently disabled (which would be "fine" in
the current code base, but far from ideal).
