[PATCH] kvm: initialize SVM spinlock

[PATCH] kvm: initialize SVM spinlock

[Dmitry Vyukov]

Currently svm_vm_data_hash_lock is left uninitialized.
This causes lockdep warnings. Properly initialize it.

We have

spin_lock_init(&svm_vm_data_hash_lock);

in svm_hardware_setup().

If this isn't called, wouldn't the right fix be to find out why?

spin_lock_init is called conditionally if avic.
Then avic_vm_init returns 0, if !avic.
But then avic_vm_destroy does not check avic and unconditionally uses
the spinlock.
Perhaps the right fix then will be:

@@ -1382,6 +1383,9 @@ static void avic_vm_destroy(struct kvm *kvm)
        unsigned long flags;
        struct kvm_arch *vm_data = &kvm->arch;

+       if (!avic)
+               return 0;
+
        avic_free_vm_id(vm_data->avic_vm_id);

        if (vm_data->avic_logical_id_table_page)


Unfortunately I don't remember how I managed to trigger this warning
because I don't have any SVM-capable hardware...
But I remember that I did not do anything special besides just
enabling spinlock checks and then doing something trivial.
Could somebody try to use SVM with the spinlock checks enabled? I
don't feel comfortable sending a non-trivial patch without testing
it...

Or stick to your initial patch and simply remove the previous
initialization (sounds clean to me). But we'd better double check if
that additional check in avic_vm_destroy() is also reasonable (maybe
something else is touched that shouldn't be).

Yes, that second patch is the right one.  David, if you wish to submit a
patch to simplify the initialization, I'll apply that too.

I can mail this patch, but I can only test build.

No problem, I have applied it locally and I am testing it.

Mailed a new patch "kvm: fix usage of uninit spinlock in avic_vm_destroy()".
