[PATCH v3 08/13] rv: Ensure synchronous cleanup for HA monitors
From: Gabriele Monaco
Date: Sat May 30 2026 - 10:19:43 EST
HA monitors may start timers, all cleanup functions currently stop the
timers asynchronously to avoid sleeping in the wrong context.
Nothing makes sure running callbacks terminate on cleanup.
Run the entire HA timer callback in an RCU read-side critical section,
this way we can simply synchronize_rcu() with any pending timer and are
sure any cleanup using kfree_rcu() runs after callbacks terminated.
Additionally make sure any unlikely callback running late won't run any
code if the monitor is marked as disabled or if destruction started.
Use memory barriers to serialise with racing resets.
Fixes: f5587d1b6ec9 ("rv: Add Hybrid Automata monitor type")
Fixes: 4a24127bd6cb ("rv: Add support for per-object monitors in DA/HA")
