Indeed. I'm pretty sure I added this code, not sure what I was thinking. There's
no reason to check mmu_invalidate_in_progress, it's not like KVM allows
mmu_invalidate_in_progress to go negative. The comment is also a bit funky. I'll
post a fixup patch to make it look like this (assuming I'm not forgetting a subtle
reason for guarding the check with the in-progress flag):
/*
* Assert that at least one range was added between start() and end().
* Not adding a range isn't fatal, but it is a KVM bug.
*/
WARN_ON_ONCE(kvm->mmu_invalidate_range_start == INVALID_GPA);
Regarding kvm->mmu_invalidate_in_progress, this would be a good opportunity to
move the BUG_ON() into the common end(), e.g. as is, an end() without a start()
from something other than the generic mmu_notifier would go unnoticed. And I
_think_ we can replace the BUG_ON() with a KVM_BUG_ON() without putting the
kernel at risk. E.g.
