[PATCH] RISC-V: KVM: Use raw_spinlock for VMID update critical section

[email protected] Thu, 16 Jul 2026 14:40:11 +0800
Newsgroups org.infradead.lists.kvm-riscv,dev.linux.lists.linux-rt-devel,org.infradead.lists.linux-riscv,org.kernel.vger.kvm,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
From: "Yuhang.chen" <[email protected]>

The VMID update critical section performs an IPI broadcast via
on_each_cpu_mask() on VMID version rollover, which must not be preempted
under PREEMPT_RT. Convert vmid_lock to raw_spinlock_t and use plain
raw_spin_lock()/raw_spin_unlock() (interrupts stay enabled, since
on_each_cpu_mask() requires it).
