    xen/events: don't bind non-percpu VIRQs with percpu chip · 77bb3dfd
    David Vrabel 提交于
    A non-percpu VIRQ (e.g., VIRQ_CONSOLE) may be freed on a different
    VCPU than it is bound to.  This can result in a race between
    handle_percpu_irq() and removing the action in __free_irq() because
    handle_percpu_irq() does not take desc->lock.  The interrupt handler
    sees a NULL action and oopses.
    
    Only use the percpu chip/handler for per-CPU VIRQs (like VIRQ_TIMER).
