vcpu mutex can be held for unlimited time so taking it with mutex_lock on an ioctl is wrong: one process could be passed a vcpu fd and call this ioctl on the vcpu used by another process, it will then be unkillable until the owner exits. Call mutex_lock_killable instead and return status. Note: mutex_lock_interruptible would be even nicer, but I am not sure all users are prepared to handle EINTR from these ioctls. They might misinterpret it as an error. Cleanup paths expect a vcpu that can't be used by any userspace so this will always succeed - catch bugs by calling BUG_ON. Catch callers that don't check return state by adding __must_check. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
