From 5acc1ca4fb15f00bfa3d4046e35ca381bc25d580 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wanpeng Li Date: Sat, 20 May 2017 20:32:32 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: X86: Fix preempt the preemption timer cancel MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Preemption can occur during cancel preemption timer, and there will be inconsistent status in lapic, vmx and vmcs field. CPU0 CPU1 preemption timer vmexit handle_preemption_timer(vCPU0) kvm_lapic_expired_hv_timer vmx_cancel_hv_timer vmx->hv_deadline_tsc = -1 vmcs_clear_bits /* hv_timer_in_use still true */ sched_out sched_in kvm_arch_vcpu_load vmx_set_hv_timer write vmx->hv_deadline_tsc vmcs_set_bits /* back in kvm_lapic_expired_hv_timer */ hv_timer_in_use = false ... vmx_vcpu_run vmx_arm_hv_run write preemption timer deadline spurious preemption timer vmexit handle_preemption_timer(vCPU0) kvm_lapic_expired_hv_timer WARN_ON(!apic->lapic_timer.hv_timer_in_use); This can be reproduced sporadically during boot of L2 on a preemptible L1, causing a splat on L1.

This way cancel_hv_timer is atomic with respect to kvm_arch_vcpu_load.
