From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Corneliu ZUZU Subject: [PATCH] arm: p2m.c bug-fix: hypervisor hang on __p2m_get_mem_access Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2016 13:46:18 +0200 Message-ID: <1453808778-4292-1-git-send-email-czuzu@bitdefender.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Return-path: List-Unsubscribe: , List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Sender: xen-devel-bounces@lists.xen.org Errors-To: xen-devel-bounces@lists.xen.org To: xen-devel@lists.xen.org Cc: Stefano Stabellini , Ian Campbell List-Id: xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org When __p2m_get_mem_access gets called, the p2m lock is already taken by either get_page_from_gva or p2m_get_mem_access. Possible code paths: 1) -> get_page_from_gva -> p2m_mem_access_check_and_get_page -> __p2m_get_mem_access 2) -> p2m_get_mem_access -> __p2m_get_mem_access In both cases if __p2m_get_mem_access subsequently gets to call p2m_lookup (happens if !radix_tree_lookup(...)), a hypervisor hang will occur, since p2m_lookup also spin-locks on the p2m lock. This bug-fix simply replaces the p2m_lookup call from __p2m_get_mem_access with a call to __p2m_lookup.
