Linux kernel source tree
Register KVM's cpuhp and syscore callbacks when enabling virtualization in hardware, as the sole purpose of said callbacks is to disable and re-enable virtualization as needed. The primary motivation for this series is to simplify dealing with enabling virtualization for Intel's TDX, which needs to enable virtualization when kvm-intel.ko is loaded, i.e. long before the first VM is created. That said, this is a nice cleanup on its own. By registering the callbacks on-demand, the callbacks themselves don't need to check kvm_usage_count, because their very existence implies a non-zero count. Patch 1 (re)adds a dedicated lock for kvm_usage_count. This avoids a lock ordering issue between cpus_read_lock() and kvm_lock. The lock ordering issue still exist in very rare cases, and will be fixed for good by switching vm_list to an (S)RCU-protected list. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
