Pull virtio &amp; lguest updates from Rusty Russell:
 "Lots of virtio work which wasn't quite ready for last merge window.

  Plus I dived into lguest again, reworking the pagetable code so we can
  move the switcher page: our fixmaps sometimes take more than 2MB now..."

Ugh.  Annoying conflicts with the tcm_vhost -&gt; vhost_scsi rename.
Hopefully correctly resolved.

Returning EMFILE (process has too many open files) is incorrect to
indicate a port is already open by another process.  Use EBUSY for that.

This does change what we report to userspace, but I believe userspace
can look at it this way: it gets EBUSY, a new error code, instead of
EMFILE.  It's still an error, and that's not changing.

<title>virtio: console: add locking around c_ovq operations</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=9ba5c80b1aea8648a3efe5f22dc1f7cacdfbeeb8'/>
<id>9ba5c80b1aea8648a3efe5f22dc1f7cacdfbeeb8</id>
<content type='text'>
When multiple ovq operations are being performed (lots of open/close
operations on virtio_console fds), the __send_control_msg() function can
get confused without locking.

A simple recipe to cause badness is:
* create a QEMU VM with two virtio-serial ports
* in the guest, do
  while true;do echo abc &gt;/dev/vport0p1;done
  while true;do echo edf &gt;/dev/vport0p2;done

In one run, this caused a panic in __send_control_msg().  In another, I
got

   virtio_console virtio0: control-o:id 0 is not a head!

This also results repeated messages similar to these on the host:

  qemu-kvm: virtio-serial-bus: Unexpected port id 478762112 for device virtio-serial-bus.0
  qemu-kvm: virtio-serial-bus: Unexpected port id 478762368 for device virtio-serial-bus.0

The cvq_lock was taken for the c_ivq.  Rename the lock to make that
obvious.

We'll also add a lock around the c_ovq in the next commit, so there's no
ambiguity.

This reverts commit 8078db789a92b10ff6e2d713231b5367e014c53b, and
adds a lengthy comment explaining the problem area.

The reverted patch caused opening of ports to fail for rproc_serial.
In probe guest_connected was set to true, but port_fops_open()
fails with -EMFILE if guest_connected already is true.

Use virtio device index for creating unique device port names.
Current index allocation in virtio is based on a monotonically
increasing variable "index". A better handling of this is to
use device index which is allocated by ida.
