of the vfio_ap device driver. Throughout this document, the following variables
will be used to denote instances of the structures herein described:
-struct ap_matrix_dev *matrix_dev;
-struct ap_matrix_mdev *matrix_mdev;
-struct kvm *kvm;
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct ap_matrix_dev *matrix_dev;
+ struct ap_matrix_mdev *matrix_mdev;
+ struct kvm *kvm;
The Matrix Devices Lock (drivers/s390/crypto/vfio_ap_private.h)
---------------------------------------------------------------
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+.. code-block:: c
-struct ap_matrix_dev {
- ...
- struct list_head mdev_list;
- struct mutex mdevs_lock;
- ...
-}
+ struct ap_matrix_dev {
+ ...
+ struct list_head mdev_list;
+ struct mutex mdevs_lock;
+ ...
+ }
The Matrix Devices Lock (matrix_dev->mdevs_lock) is implemented as a global
mutex contained within the single object of struct ap_matrix_dev. This lock
The KVM Lock (include/linux/kvm_host.h)
---------------------------------------
-struct kvm {
- ...
- struct mutex lock;
- ...
-}
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct kvm {
+ ...
+ struct mutex lock;
+ ...
+ }
The KVM Lock (kvm->lock) controls access to the state data for a KVM guest. This
lock must be held by the vfio_ap device driver while one or more AP adapters,
The Guests Lock (drivers/s390/crypto/vfio_ap_private.h)
-----------------------------------------------------------
-struct ap_matrix_dev {
- ...
- struct list_head mdev_list;
- struct mutex guests_lock;
- ...
-}
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ struct ap_matrix_dev {
+ ...
+ struct list_head mdev_list;
+ struct mutex guests_lock;
+ ...
+ }
The Guests Lock (matrix_dev->guests_lock) controls access to the
matrix_mdev instances (matrix_dev->mdev_list) that represent mediated devices
The PQAP Hook Lock (arch/s390/include/asm/kvm_host.h)
-----------------------------------------------------
-typedef int (*crypto_hook)(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu);
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ typedef int (*crypto_hook)(struct kvm_vcpu *vcpu);
-struct kvm_s390_crypto {
- ...
- struct rw_semaphore pqap_hook_rwsem;
- crypto_hook *pqap_hook;
- ...
-};
+ struct kvm_s390_crypto {
+ ...
+ struct rw_semaphore pqap_hook_rwsem;
+ crypto_hook *pqap_hook;
+ ...
+ };
The PQAP Hook Lock is a r/w semaphore that controls access to the function
-pointer of the handler (*kvm->arch.crypto.pqap_hook) to invoke when the
+pointer of the handler ``(*kvm->arch.crypto.pqap_hook)`` to invoke when the
PQAP(AQIC) instruction sub-function is intercepted by the host. The lock must be
held in write mode when pqap_hook value is set, and in read mode when the
pqap_hook function is called.
