#1695451 — [PATCH v4] KVM: LAPIC: Fix reentrancy issues with preempt notifiers

FromWanpeng Li <kernellwp@gmail.com>

Subject[PATCH v4] KVM: LAPIC: Fix reentrancy issues with preempt notifiers
Message-ID<u72Lo-8oY-43@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@hotmail.com>

Preempt can occur in the preemption timer expiration handler:

          CPU0                    CPU1

  preemption timer vmexit
  handle_preemption_timer(vCPU0)
    kvm_lapic_expired_hv_timer
      hv_timer_is_use == true
  sched_out
                           sched_in
                           kvm_arch_vcpu_load
                             kvm_lapic_restart_hv_timer
                               restart_apic_timer
                                 start_hv_timer
                                   already-expired timer or sw timer triggerd in the window
                                 start_sw_timer
                                   cancel_hv_timer
                           /* back in kvm_lapic_expired_hv_timer */
                           cancel_hv_timer
                             WARN_ON(!apic->lapic_timer.hv_timer_in_use);  ==> Oops

This can be reproduced if CONFIG_PREEMPT is enabled.

This patch fixes it by making the caller of start_hv_timer and start_sw_timer 
be in preemption-disabled regions, which trivially avoid any reentrancy 
issue with preempt notifier.

I've hit this warning today, and your patch seems fixing it.

Thanks!
