Commit ddd7ed842627 ("x86/kvm: Alloc dummy async #PF token outside of
raw spinlock") leads to the following Smatch static checker warning:
arch/x86/kernel/kvm.c:212 kvm_async_pf_task_wake()
warn: sleeping in atomic context
arch/x86/kernel/kvm.c
202 raw_spin_lock(&b->lock);
203 n = _find_apf_task(b, token);
204 if (!n) {
205 /*
206 * Async #PF not yet handled, add a dummy entry for the token.
207 * Allocating the token must be down outside of the raw lock
208 * as the allocator is preemptible on PREEMPT_RT kernels.
209 */
210 if (!dummy) {
211 raw_spin_unlock(&b->lock);
--> 212 dummy = kzalloc(sizeof(*dummy), GFP_KERNEL);
^^^^^^^^^^
Smatch thinks the caller has preempt disabled. The `smdb.py preempt
kvm_async_pf_task_wake` output call tree is:
sysvec_kvm_asyncpf_interrupt() <- disables preempt
-> __sysvec_kvm_asyncpf_interrupt()
-> kvm_async_pf_task_wake()
The caller is this:
arch/x86/kernel/kvm.c
290 DEFINE_IDTENTRY_SYSVEC(sysvec_kvm_asyncpf_interrupt)
291 {
292 struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
293 u32 token;
294
295 ack_APIC_irq();
296
297 inc_irq_stat(irq_hv_callback_count);
298
299 if (__this_cpu_read(apf_reason.enabled)) {
300 token = __this_cpu_read(apf_reason.token);
301 kvm_async_pf_task_wake(token);
302 __this_cpu_write(apf_reason.token, 0);
303 wrmsrl(MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_ACK, 1);
304 }
305
306 set_irq_regs(old_regs);
307 }
The DEFINE_IDTENTRY_SYSVEC() is a wrapper that calls this function
from the call_on_irqstack_cond(). It's inside the call_on_irqstack_cond()
where preempt is disabled (unless it's already disabled). The
irq_enter/exit_rcu() functions disable/enable preempt.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
