commit 1bce7fb1f702da4f7a749c6f1457ecb20bf74fca Author: Tamas K Lengyel <tamas.lengyel@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Tue Oct 11 15:01:48 2022 +0200 Commit: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Tue Oct 11 15:01:48 2022 +0200 x86/vpmu: Fix race-condition in vpmu_load The vPMU code-bases attempts to perform an optimization on saving/reloading the PMU context by keeping track of what vCPU ran on each pCPU. When a pCPU is getting scheduled, checks if the previous vCPU isn't the current one. If so, attempts a call to vpmu_save_force. Unfortunately if the previous vCPU is already getting scheduled to run on another pCPU its state will be already runnable, which results in an ASSERT failure. Fix this by always performing a pmu context save in vpmu_save when called from vpmu_switch_from, and do a vpmu_load when called from vpmu_switch_to. While this presents a minimal overhead in case the same vCPU is getting rescheduled on the same pCPU, the ASSERT failure is avoided and the code is a lot easier to reason about.
