From: Julien Grall <jgrall@xxxxxxxxxx> It is a bit pointless to crash a domain that is already dying. This will become more an annoyance with a follow-up change where page-table allocation will be forbidden when the domain is dying. Security wise, there is no change as the devices would still have access to the IOMMU page-tables even if the domain has crashed until Xen start to relinquish the resources. For x86, we rely on dom_iommu(d)->arch.mapping.lock to ensure d->is_dying is correctly observed (a follow-up patch will held it in the relinquish path). For Arm, there is still a small race possible. But there is so far no failure specific to a domain dying. Signed-off-by: Julien Grall <jgrall@xxxxxxxxxx> --- This was spotted when trying to destroy IOREQ servers while the domain is dying. The code will try to add the entry back in the P2M and therefore update the P2M (see arch_ioreq_server_disable() -> hvm_add_ioreq_gfn()). It should be possible to skip the mappin in hvm_add_ioreq_gfn(), however I didn't try a patch yet because checking d->is_dying can be racy (I can't find a proper lock).
