From 229ce631574761870a2ac938845fadbd07f35caa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wanpeng Li Date: Thu, 14 Jul 2016 16:15:56 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] locking/pvqspinlock: Fix double hash race When the lock holder vCPU is racing with the queue head: CPU 0 (lock holder) CPU1 (queue head) =================== ================= spin_lock(); spin_lock(); pv_kick_node(): pv_wait_head_or_lock(): if (!lp) { lp = pv_hash(lock, pn); xchg(&l->locked, _Q_SLOW_VAL); } WRITE_ONCE(pn->state, vcpu_halted); cmpxchg(&pn->state, vcpu_halted, vcpu_hashed); WRITE_ONCE(l->locked, _Q_SLOW_VAL); (void)pv_hash(lock, pn); In this case, lock holder inserts the pv_node of queue head into the hash table and set _Q_SLOW_VAL unnecessary. This patch avoids it by restoring/setting vcpu_hashed state after failing adaptive locking spinning.
