6 | [PATCH] x86_64: Fix a race in the free_iommu path. |
7 | |
8 | We do this by removing a micro-optimization that tries to avoid grabbing |
9 | the iommu_bitmap_lock spinlock and using a bus-locked operation. |
10 | |
11 | This still races with other simultaneous alloc_iommu or free_iommu(size |
12 | > 1) which both use bus-unlocked operations. |
13 | |
14 | The end result of this race is eventually ending |
15 | up with an iommu_gart_bitmap that has bits errornously set all over, |
16 | making large contiguous iommu space allocations fail with 'PCI-DMA: |
17 | Out of IOMMU space'. |
