Subject: [PATCH] xen/events: Update virq_to_irq on migration

VIRQs come in 3 flavors, per-VPU, per-domain, and global, and the VIRQs are tracked in per-cpu virq_to_irq arrays.

Per-domain and global VIRQs must be bound on CPU 0, and bind_virq_to_irq() sets the per_cpu virq_to_irq at registration time Later, the interrupt can migrate, and info->cpu is updated. When calling __unbind_from_irq(), the per-cpu virq_to_irq is cleared for a different cpu. If bind_virq_to_irq() is called again with CPU 0, the stale irq is returned. There won't be any irq_info for the irq, so things break.

Make xen_rebind_evtchn_to_cpu() update the per_cpu virq_to_irq mappings to keep them update to date with the current cpu. This ensures the correct virq_to_irq is cleared in __unbind_from_irq().

Fixes e46cdb66c8fc ("xen: event channels")

PATCH 1/1 xen/events: Update virq_to_irq on migration

From: Jason Andryuk <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 3fcc8e146935415d69ffabb5df40ecf50e106131 ]

VIRQs come in 3 flavors, per-VPU, per-domain, and global, and the VIRQs are tracked in per-cpu virq_to_irq arrays.

Per-domain and global VIRQs must be bound on CPU 0, and bind_virq_to_irq() sets the per_cpu virq_to_irq at registration time Later, the interrupt can migrate, and info->cpu is updated.
