[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/3] vhost: fix lock on device readiness notification

From: Jiayu Hu <hidden>
Date: 2021-07-07 04:50:20
Subsystem: library code, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, Linus Torvalds

The vhost notifies the application of device readiness via
vhost_user_notify_queue_state(), but calling this function
is not protected by the lock. This patch is to make this
function call lock protected.

Fixes: d0fcc38f5fa4 ("vhost: improve device readiness notifications")
