We normally rely on the irq_to_cpuid_[un]lock() primitives to make
sure nothing will change col->idx while performing a LPI invalidation.
However, these primitives do not cover VPE doorbells, and we have
some open-coded locking for that. Unfortunately, this locking is
pretty bogus.
Instead, extend the above primitives to cover VPE doorbells and
convert the whole thing to it.

Nit: I think the Subject header can be changed to 'irqchip/gic-v4' as
the bug it fixes only affects GICv4 HW. v4.1 is unaffected.

I've tested this patch 20+ times with a multi-core VM, which has
pass-through devices (netwrok card and SSD) and GICv4 or GICv4.1
enabled. Both Guest and Host found no exception.

I'm not so sure.
v4.0 didn't allow direct invalidation of VPE doorbells (we had to use
the fake device hack), except for the HiSi special that implemented
DirectLPI despite the presence of multiple ITSs. It was a violation of
the architecture, but it really saved the day by making invalidations
cheap enough.
Only with v4.1 did we get architectural support for doorbell
invalidation via a register instead of a command for a fake device.
So as far as the architecture is concerned, this should only affect
v4.1. As a side effect, it also affect HiSi's v4.0 implementations.
Or am I missing something?
Cheers,
M.

irqchip/gic-v4.1: Properly lock VPEs when doing a directLPI invalidation
We normally rely on the irq_to_cpuid_[un]lock() primitives to make
sure nothing will change col->idx while performing a LPI invalidation.
However, these primitives do not cover VPE doorbells, and we have
some open-coded locking for that. Unfortunately, this locking is
pretty bogus.
Instead, extend the above primitives to cover VPE doorbells and
convert the whole thing to it.

[ I should've mentioned that I had reproduced the bug and tested your
patch on my 920, which is, yeah, a HiSi implementation of GICv4.0 with
DirectLPI supported. But ]

... iiuc the bug we're fixing is that we perform a register based
invalidation for doorbells (via its_vpe_[un]mask_irq/its_vpe_send_inv),
acquire and release the per-RD lock with a *race* against a concurrent
its_map_vm(), which would modify the vpe->col_idx behind our backs and
affect the lock we're looking for.
its_vpe_[un]mask_irq() are callbacks for the v4.0 irqchip, i.e.,
its_vpe_irq_chip.
With v4.1, we switch to use its_vpe_4_1_irq_chip and invalidate
doorbells by sending the new INVDB command (and shouldn't be affected by
this bug).
Thanks,
Zenghui

Gah, of course you're right. And we hardly ever invalidate DBs with
v4.1 anyway since we can always say whether we want the doorbell or
not when exiting residency on the RD (based on trapping WFI or not).
Apologies for the noise, and thanks for putting me right!
