[PATCH] irqchip/gic-v4: Fix ordering between vmapp and vpe locks

Tue Jul 23 10:52:03 PDT 2024


The (recently established) lock ordering mandates that the per-VM
vmapp_lock is acquired before we take the per-VPE lock.

As it turns out, its_vpe_set_affinity() takes the VPE lock, and
then calls into its_send_vmovp(), which itself takes the vmapp
lock. Obviously, this isn't what we want.

As its_send_vmovp() is only called from its_vpe_set_affinity(),
hoist the vmapp locking from the former into the latter, restoring
the expected order.

Fixes: f0eb154c39471 ("irqchip/gic-v4: Substitute vmovp_lock for a per-VM lock")
