virtio: Return true from virtio_queue_empty if broken
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Both virtio-blk and virtio-scsi use virtio_queue_empty() as the
loop condition in VQ handlers (virtio_blk_handle_vq,
virtio_scsi_handle_cmd_vq). When a device is marked broken in
virtqueue_pop, for example if a vIOMMU address translation failed, we
want to break out of the loop.

This fixes a hanging problem when booting a CentOS 3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64
kernel with ATS enabled:

  $ qemu-system-x86_64 \
    ... \
    -device intel-iommu,intremap=on,caching-mode=on,eim=on,device-iotlb=on \
    -device virtio-scsi-pci,iommu_platform=on,ats=on,id=scsi0,bus=pci.4,addr=0x0

The dead loop happens immediately when the kernel boots and initializes
the device, where virtio_scsi_data_plane_handle_cmd will not return:

With this patch, virtio_queue_empty will now return 1 as soon as the
vdev is marked as broken, after a "virtio: zero sized buffers are not
allowed" error.

To be consistent, update virtio_queue_empty_rcu as well.
