The vhost_set_vring_num_addr() could be called in the middle of invalidate_range_start() and invalidate_range_end(). If we don't reset invalidate_count after the un-registering of MMU notifier, the invalidate_cont will run out of sync (e.g never reach zero). This will in fact disable the fast accessor path. Fixing by reset the count to zero. Reported-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>Did Michael report this as well?Correct me if I was wrong. I think it's point 4 described in https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/21/25.I'm not sure what that is talking about But this fixes what I described: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/22/554 Jason
I'm sorry I miss this, will add your name as reported-by in the next version. Thanks
