We don't protect device IOTLB with vq mutex, which will lead e.g use after free for device IOTLB entries. And since we've switched to use mutex_trylock() in previous patch, it's safe to revert it without having deadlock. Fixes: commit 78139c94dc8c ("net: vhost: lock the vqs one by one") Cc: Tonghao Zhang<[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Jason Wang<[email protected]>Acked-by: Michael S. Tsirkin<[email protected]> I'd try to put this in 4.20 if we can and it's needed for -stable I think. Also looks like we should allow iotlb entries per vq to improve locking. What do you think?
Yes, we can do it for -next. Thanks
