Subject: [PATCH net 0/4] Prevent vhost kthread from hogging CPU

Hi:

This series try to prvernt a guest triggerable CPU hogging through
vhost kthread. This is done by introducing and checking the weight
after each requrest. The patch has been tested with reproducer of
vsock and virtio-net. Only compile test is done for vhost-scsi.

Please review.

This addresses CVE-2019-3900.

Jason Wang (4):
  vhost: introduce vhost_exceeds_weight()
  vhost_net: fix possible infinite loop
  vhost: vsock: add weight support
  vhost: scsi: add weight support
