[PATCH v2 2/3] xen/events: Return -EEXIST for bound VIRQs

There is a newer version of this series
[PATCH v2 2/3] xen/events: Return -EEXIST for bound VIRQs
Posted by Jason Andryuk 1 month, 1 week ago 
Change find_virq() to return -EEXIST when a VIRQ is bound to a
different CPU than the one passed in.  With that, remove the BUG_ON()
from bind_virq_to_irq() to propogate the error upwards.

Some VIRQs are per-cpu, but others are per-domain or global.  Those must
be bound to CPU0 and can then migrate elsewhere.  The lookup for
per-domain and global will probably fail when migrated off CPU 0,
especially when the current CPU is tracked.  This now returns -EEXIST
instead of BUG_ON().

A second call to bind a per-domain or global VIRQ is not expected, but
make it non-fatal to avoid trying to look up the irq, since we don't
know which per_cpu(virq_to_irq) it will be in.

I think you are leaking info here. I guess a call of __unbind_from_irq() is
wanted like in the error case below (note that the case of no valid evtchn is
handled there just fine).

Ok, thanks for catching that.

I'm going to add Cc: stable to the next version of this.  While it 
doesn't have a Fixes associated, we want this as a prerequisite for patch 3.
