Subject: Re: [PATCH v2] x86/kvm: Use RCU for svm_vm_data_hash
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 07:04:00 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <avSD4O4AELPcmhqb@seanjc-mac.roam.internal> (raw)

KVM: SVM:

"x86/kvm:" is specifically for guest-side code, e.g. arch/x86/kernel/kvm.c

> Changes since v1:

In the future, please wait the "normal" amount of time before sending a new
version, e.g. a day or two for something relatively simple like this.  I.e.
treat feedback from Sashiko like feedback from a human reviewer, and don't spam
patches.

There are times when it's acceptable to break the "don't spam patches" rule, but
this isn't one of those times.

Eww.  Don't open code scoped_guard(), e.g. this should work:

	scoped_guard(spinlock_irqsave, &svm_vm_data_hash_lock)
		hash_del(&kvm_svm->hnode);

	synchronize_rcu();

I'm a little hesitant to put a full synchronize_rcu() in the destroy path, but
in practice it's should be ok.
