kvm->lock must be taken outside of the vcpu->mutex. Of course, the locking documentation for KVM makes this abundantly clear. Nonetheless, the locking order in KVM/arm64 has been wrong for quite a while; we acquire the kvm->lock while holding the vcpu->mutex all over the shop. All was seemingly fine until commit 42a90008 ("KVM: Ensure lockdep knows about kvm->lock vs. vcpu->mutex ordering rule") caught us with our pants down, leading to lockdep barfing: ====================================================== WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected 6.2.0-rc7+ #19 Not tainted ------------------------------------------------------ qemu-system-aar/859 is trying to acquire lock: ffff5aa69269eba0 (&host_kvm->lock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: kvm_reset_vcpu+0x34/0x274 but task is already holding lock: ffff5aa68768c0b8 (&vcpu->mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x8c/0xba0 which lock already depends on the new lock. Add a dedicated lock to serialize writes to VM-scoped configuration from the context of a vCPU. Protect the register width flags with the new lock, thus avoiding the need to grab the kvm->lock while holding vcpu->mutex in kvm_reset_vcpu(). Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by:
