Subject: [PATCH for-4.5 v2] x86/hvm: remove stray ioreq_server.lock lock release from hvm_ioreq_server_init()
Date: Fri, 26 Sep 2014 15:27:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1411738038-3278-1-git-send-email-vkuznets@redhat.com> (raw)
If HVM_PARAM_IOREQ_PFN, HVM_PARAM_BUFIOREQ_PFN, or HVM_PARAM_BUFIOREQ_EVTCHN
parameters are read when guest domain is dying it leads to the following
ASSERT:
(XEN) Assertion '_raw_spin_is_locked(lock)' failed at ...workspace/KERNEL/xen/xen/include/asm/spinlock.h:18
(XEN) ----[ Xen-4.5-unstable x86_64 debug=y Not tainted ]----
...
(XEN) Xen call trace:
(XEN) [<ffff82d08012b07f>] _spin_unlock+0x27/0x30
(XEN) [<ffff82d0801b6103>] hvm_create_ioreq_server+0x3df/0x49a
(XEN) [<ffff82d0801bcceb>] do_hvm_op+0x12bf/0x27a0
(XEN) [<ffff82d08022b9bb>] syscall_enter+0xeb/0x145
The root cause of this issue is the fact that ioreq_server.lock is being
released twice - first in hvm_ioreq_server_init() and then in hvm_create_ioreq_server().
Drop the lock release from hvm_ioreq_server_init() as we don't take it here.

Changes from v1:
- Instead of protecting agains creating ioreq server while guest domain
is dying remove stray ioreq_server.lock lock release
from hvm_ioreq_server_init(). Rename the patch accordingly.
