Since the vPMU is requested, but not setup,\n kvm_arm_pmu_v3_enable() fails in kvm_arch_vcpu_run_pid_change().\n As a result, KVM_RUN returns after enabling the timer, but before\n incrementing 'userspace_irqchip_in_use':\n kvm_arch_vcpu_run_pid_change()\n ret = kvm_arm_pmu_v3_enable()\n if (!vcpu->arch.pmu.created)\n return -EINVAL;\n if (ret)\n return ret;\n [...]\n if (!irqchip_in_kernel(kvm))\n static_branch_inc(&userspace_irqchip_in_use);\n - Userspace ignores the error and issues KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT again.\n Since the timer is already enabled, control moves through the\n following flow, ultimately hitting the WARN_ON():\n kvm_timer_vcpu_reset()\n if (timer->enabled)\n kvm_timer_update_irq()\n if (!userspace_irqchip())\n ret = kvm_vgic_inject_irq()\n ret = vgic_lazy_init()\n if (unlikely(!vgic_initialized(kvm)))\n if (kvm->arch.vgic.vgic_model !=\n KVM_DEV_TYPE_ARM_VGIC_V2)\n return -EBUSY;\n WARN_ON(ret);\n\nTheoretically, since userspace_irqchip_in_use's functionality can be\nsimply replaced by '!irqchip_in_kernel()', get rid of the static key\nto avoid the mismanagement, which also helps with the syzbot issue.", "affected":
