actually, now I'm confused.
vgic_add_lpi returns a struct vgic_irq with a reference count for the
reference in the itte struct, right?
So we never get a reference for the irq->lpi_list/dist->lpi_list_head ?
In which case my code above is wrong and I should not be getting the
extra reference. Right?
Now, this made me think of another issue. vgic_add_lpi has a blurb in
there about racing with another vgic_add_lpi and then it returns an irq
with an additional reference. But I don't understand how this can
happen, given that the function only has a single caller which has to
run with a mutex held???
Can two different itte's point to the same struct vgic_irq ?
Thanks,
