The GICv4.1 spec tells us that it's CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE to issue a register-based invalidation operation for a vPEID not mapped to that RD,
or another RD within the same CommonLPIAff group.

To follow this rule, commit f3a059219bc7 ("irqchip/gic-v4.1: Ensure mutual exclusion between vPE affinity change and RD access") tried to address the
race between the RD accesses and the vPE affinity change, but somehow
forgot to take GICR_INVALLR into account. Let's take the vpe_lock before
evaluating vpe->col_idx to fix it.

Shouldn't this deserve a Fixes: tag?

Yes, I think a

Fixes: f3a059219bc7 ("irqchip/gic-v4.1: Ensure mutual exclusion
between vPE affinity change and RD access")

should be enough. Should I resend a version with the tag added?

Yes, please, together with a Cc: [email protected], as the
original patch is in 5.7 and I intend to take it via the 5.9
branch.

Thanks,

        M.
