Subject: [PATCH v2] x86/xen: don't unbind uninitialized lock_kicker_irq
Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2020 20:11:19 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201107011119.631442-1-bmasney@redhat.com> (raw)
When booting a hyperthreaded system with the kernel parameter
'mitigations=auto,nosmt', the following warning occurs:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at drivers/xen/events/events_base.c:1112 unbind_from_irqhandler+0x4e/0x60
...
Hardware name: Xen HVM domU, BIOS 4.2.amazon 08/24/2006
...

The secondary CPUs are not activated with the nosmt mitigations and only
the primary thread on each CPU core is used. In this situation,
xen_hvm_smp_prepare_cpus(), and more importantly xen_init_lock_cpu(), is
not called, so the lock_kicker_irq is not initialized for the secondary
CPUs. Let's fix this by exiting early in xen_uninit_lock_cpu() if the
irq is not set to avoid the warning from above for each secondary CPU.

Changes since v1:
- Remove duplicate per_cpu() call and pass in irq variable.
- Changed subject from 'x86/xen: fix warning when running with nosmt
mitigations'
- Shorten code comment
