2014-10-30Drivers: hv: vmbus: Cleanup vmbus_post_msg()K. Y. Srinivasan
commit fdeebcc62279119dbeafbc1a2e39e773839025fd upstream. Posting messages to the host can fail because of transient resource related failures. Correctly deal with these failures and increase the number of attempts to post the message before giving up. In this version of the patch, I have normalized the error code to Linux error code.

2014-07-17Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix a bug in the channel callback dispatch codeK. Y. Srinivasan
commit affb1aff300ddee54df307812b38f166e8a865ef upstream. Starting with Win8, we have implemented several optimizations to improve the scalability and performance of the VMBUS transport between the Host and the Guest. Some of the non-performance critical services cannot leverage these optimization since they only read and process one message at a time. Make adjustments to the callback dispatch code to account for the way non-performance critical drivers handle reading of the channel. Signed-off-by: K. Y.

2014-06-07Drivers: hv: vmbus: Negotiate version 3.0 when running on ws2012r2 hostsK. Y. Srinivasan
commit 03367ef5ea811475187a0732aada068919e14d61 upstream. Only ws2012r2 hosts support the ability to reconnect to the host on VMBUS. This functionality is needed by kexec in Linux. To use this functionality we need to negotiate version 3.0 of the VMBUS protocol. Signed-off-by: K. Y. Srinivasan <kys@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2014-02-22Drivers: hv: vmbus: Don't timeout during the initial connection with hostK. Y. Srinivasan
commit 269f979467cf49f2ea8132316c1f00f8c9678f7c upstream. When the guest attempts to connect with the host when there may already be a connection with the host (as would be the case during the kdump/kexec path), it is difficult to guarantee timely response from the host. Starting with WS2012 R2, the host supports this ability to re-connect with the host (explicitly to support kexec). Prior to responding to the guest, the host needs to ensure that device states based on the previous connection to the host have been properly torn down. This may introduce unbounded delays. To deal with this issue, don't do a timed wait during the initial connect with the host. Signed-off-by: K. Y.

2013-01-17Drivers: hv: Modify the interrupt handling code to support win8 and beyondK. Y. Srinivasan
Starting with Win8 (WS2012), the event page can be used to directly get the channel ID that needs servicing. Modify the channel event handling code to take advantage of this feature.

2013-01-17Drivers: hv: Cleanup vmbus_set_event() to support win7 and beyondK. Y. Srinivasan
On win7 (ws2008 R2) and beyond, we have the notion of having dedicated interrupts on a per-channel basis. When a channel has a dedicated interrupt assigned, there is no need to set the interrupt bit in the shared page. Implement this optimization. Signed-off-by: K. Y.
