x86/vpt: fix race when migrating timers between vCPUs
The current vPT code will migrate the emulated timers between vCPUs
(change the pt->vcpu field) while just holding the destination lock,
either from create_periodic_time or pt_adjust_global_vcpu_target if
the global target is adjusted. Changing the periodic_timer vCPU field
in this way creates a race where a third party could grab the lock in
the unlocked region of pt_adjust_global_vcpu_target (or before
create_periodic_time performs the vcpu change) and then release the
lock from a different vCPU, creating a locking imbalance.
Introduce a per-domain rwlock in order to protect periodic_time
migration between vCPU lists. Taking the lock in read mode prevents
any timer from being migrated to a different vCPU, while taking it in
write mode allows performing migration of timers across vCPUs. The
per-vcpu locks are still used to protect all the other fields from the
periodic_timer struct.
Note that such migration shouldn't happen frequently, and hence
there's no performance drop as a result of such locking.
This is XSA-336.
