Subject: [PATCH 6.6.y v2 4/4] s390/vfio_ccw: Implement a crw lock
Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2026 13:49:52 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260821174951.3467637-6-farman@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260821174951.3467637-1-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")
