From c0573ba5c5a2244dc02060b1f374d4593c1d20b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claudio Imbrenda imbrenda@linux.ibm.com Date: Tue, 1 Mar 2022 15:33:40 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: s390x: fix SCK locking
When handling the SCK instruction, the kvm lock is taken, even though the vcpu lock is already being held. The normal locking order is kvm lock first and then vcpu lock. This is can (and in some circumstances does) lead to deadlocks.
The function kvm_s390_set_tod_clock is called both by the SCK handler and by some IOCTLs to set the clock. The IOCTLs will not hold the vcpu lock, so they can safely take the kvm lock. The SCK handler holds the vcpu lock, but will also somehow need to acquire the kvm lock without relinquishing the vcpu lock.
The solution is to factor out the code to set the clock, and provide two wrappers. One is called like the original function and does the locking, the other is called kvm_s390_try_set_tod_clock and uses trylock to try to acquire the kvm lock. This new wrapper is then used in the SCK handler. If locking fails, -EAGAIN is returned, which is eventually propagated to userspace, thus also freeing the vcpu lock and allowing for forward progress.
This is not the most efficient or elegant way to solve this issue, but the SCK instruction is deprecated and its performance is not critical.
The goal of this patch is just to provide a simple but correct way to fix the bug.
