Subject: [PATCH 08/12] KVM: PPC: Book3s HV: Don't access runnable threads list without vcore lock
Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2012 22:37:11 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120828123711.GI7258@bloggs.ozlabs.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120828123043.GA7258@bloggs.ozlabs.ibm.com>

There were a few places where we were traversing the list of runnable
threads in a virtual core, i.e. vc->runnable_threads, without holding
the vcore spinlock.  This extends the places where we hold the vcore
spinlock to cover everywhere that we traverse that list.

Since we possibly need to sleep inside kvmppc_book3s_hv_page_fault,
this moves the call of it from kvmppc_handle_exit out to
kvmppc_vcpu_run, where we don't hold the vcore lock.

In kvmppc_vcore_blocked, we don't actually need to check whether
all vcpus are ceded and don't have any pending exceptions, since the
caller has already done that.  The caller (kvmppc_run_vcpu) wasn't
actually checking for pending exceptions, so we add that.

The change of if to while in kvmppc_run_vcpu is to make sure that we
never call kvmppc_remove_runnable() when the vcore state is RUNNING or
EXITING.
