-Subject: [PATCH] gnttab: split maptrack lock to make it fulfill its purpose
- again
-
-The way the lock is currently being used in get_maptrack_handle(), it
-protects only the maptrack limit: The function acts on current's list
-only, so races on list accesses are impossible even without the lock.
-
-Otoh list access races are possible between __get_maptrack_handle() and
-put_maptrack_handle(), due to the invocation of the former for other
-than current from steal_maptrack_handle(). Introduce a per-vCPU lock
-for list accesses to become race free again. This lock will be
-uncontended except when it becomes necessary to take the steal path,
-i.e. in the common case there should be no meaningful performance
-impact.
-
-When in get_maptrack_handle adds a stolen entry to a fresh, empty,
-freelist, we think that there is probably no concurrency. However,
-this is not a fast path and adding the locking there makes the code
-clearly correct.
-
-Also, while we are here: the stolen maptrack_entry's tail pointer was
-not properly set. Set it.
-
-This is XSA-228.
