KVP daemon does fork()/exec() (with popen()) so we need to close our fds to avoid sharing them with child processes. The immediate implication of not doing so I see is SELinux complaining about 'ip' trying to access '/dev/vmbus/hv_kvp'. Signed-off-by:

On Hyper-V, performance critical channels use the monitor mechanism to signal the host when the guest posts mesages for the host. This mechanism minimizes the hypervisor intercepts and also makes the host more efficient in that each time the host is woken up, it processes a batch of messages as opposed to just one. The goal here is improve the throughput and this is at the expense of increased latency. Implement a mechanism to let the client driver decide if latency is important. Signed-off-by:

There is a rare race when we remove an entry from the global list hv_context.percpu_list[cpu] in hv_process_channel_removal() -> percpu_channel_deq() -> list_del(): at this time, if vmbus_on_event() -> process_chn_event() -> pcpu_relid2channel() is trying to query the list, we can get the kernel fault. Similarly, we also have the issue in the code path: vmbus_process_offer() -> percpu_channel_enq(). We can resolve the issue by disabling the tasklet when updating the list. The patch also moves vmbus_release_relid() to a later place where the channel has been removed from the per-cpu and the global lists. Reported-by:

Background: userspace daemons registration protocol for Hyper-V utilities drivers has two steps: 1) daemon writes its own version to kernel 2) kernel reads it and replies with module version at this point we consider the handshake procedure being completed and we do hv_poll_channel() transitioning the utility device to HVUTIL_READY state. At this point we're ready to handle messages from kernel. When hvutil_transport is in HVUTIL_TRANSPORT_CHARDEV mode we have a single buffer for outgoing message. hvutil_transport_send() puts to this buffer and till the buffer is cleared with hvt_op_read() returns -EFAULT to all consequent calls. Host<->guest protocol guarantees there is no more than one request at a time and we will not get new requests till we reply to the previous one so this single message buffer is enough. Now to the race. When we finish negotiation procedure and send kernel module version to userspace with hvutil_transport_send() it goes into the above mentioned buffer and if the daemon is slow enough to read it from there we can get a collision when a request from the host comes, we won't be able to put anything to the buffer so the request will be lost. To solve the issue we need to know when the negotiation is really done (when the version message is read by the daemon) and transition to HVUTIL_READY state after this happens. Implement a callback on read to support this. Old style netlink communication is not affected by the change, we don't really know when these messages are delivered but we don't have a single message buffer there. Reported-by:

vmbus_teardown_gpadl() can result in infinite wait when it is called on 5 second timeout in vmbus_open(). The issue is caused by the fact that gpadl teardown operation won't ever succeed for an opened channel and the timeout isn't always enough. As a guest, we can always trust the host to respond to our request (and there is nothing we can do if it doesn't). Signed-off-by:

In some cases create_gpadl_header() allocates submessages but we never free them. Signed-off-by:
-
Vitaly Kuznetsov authored
We use messagecount only once in vmbus_establish_gpadl() to check if it is safe to iterate through the submsglist. We can just initialize the list header in all cases in create_gpadl_header() instead. Signed-off-by:

When we crash from NMI context (e.g. after NMI injection from host when 'sysctl -w kernel.unknown_nmi_panic=1' is set) we hit kernel BUG at mm/vmalloc.c:1530! as vfree() is denied. While the issue could be solved with in_nmi() check instead I opted for skipping vfree on all sorts of crashes to reduce the amount of work which can cause consequent crashes. We don't really need to free anything on crash. Signed-off-by:

Joe Perches points out [1] that this pattern isn't currently safe. This driver doesn't really need the zeroing semantic anyway; by restructuring the code slightly we can initialize all the fields of the structure up front instead.

When building with W=1, the __scif_rma_destroy_tcw function causes a harmless warning about an argument variable that is modified but not used: drivers/misc/mic/scif/scif_dma.c: In function ‘__scif_rma_destroy_tcw’: drivers/misc/mic/scif/scif_dma.c:118:27: error: parameter ‘ep’ set but not used [-Werror=unused-but-set-parameter] In this case, we can just remove the argument, since all callers are in the same file.

The device lock was unnecessary obtained in bus rescan work before the amthif client search. That causes incorrect lock ordering and task hang: ... [88004.613213] INFO: task kworker/1:14:21832 blocked for more than 120 seconds. ... [88004.645934] Workqueue: events mei_cl_bus_rescan_work ... The correct lock order is cl_bus_lock device_lock me_clients_rwsem Move device_lock into amthif init function that called after me_clients_rwsem is released.

The Fixed address clients do not work with the flow control, and the packet RX callback was allocated upon TX with anticipation of a following RX. This won't work if the clients with unsolicited Rx. Rather than preparing read callback upon a write we allocate one directly on the reciev path if one doesn't exists. Signed-off-by:

In the course of the read flow we want to wait for read completion only if the read queue is empty. However the calling list_empty(&cl->rd_completed) is a duplication as the same check was performed by mei_cl_read_cb() and the waiting is skipped if it returns not NULL. Signed-off-by:

Alexander Usyskin authored
Currently, all requests cancelled by the user are immediately removed from the queues. Such removal can cause unexpected behavior in the case when a request is partially written or a reply is received after the request is cancelled. To resolve this a request is always fully processed and the result is discarded in case the request was canceled.
