I got HV_STATUS_INVALID_CONNECTION_ID on Hyper-V 2008 R2 when keeping running "rmmod hv_netvsc; modprobe hv_netvsc; rmmod hv_utils; modprobe hv_utils" in a Linux guest. Looks the host has some kind of throttling mechanism if some kinds of hypercalls are sent too frequently. Without the patch, the driver can occasionally fail to load. Also let's retry HV_STATUS_INSUFFICIENT_MEMORY, though we didn't get it before. Removed 'case -ENOMEM', since the hypervisor doesn't return this. CC: "K. Y.

Newly introduced clockevent devices made it impossible to unload hv_vmbus module as clockevents_config_and_register() takes additional reverence to the module. To make it possible again we do the following: - avoid setting dev->owner for clockevent devices; - implement hv_synic_clockevents_cleanup() doing clockevents_unbind_device(); - call it from vmbus_exit(). In theory hv_synic_clockevents_cleanup() can be merged with hv_synic_cleanup(), however, we call hv_synic_cleanup() from smp_call_function_single() and this doesn't work for clockevents_unbind_device() as it does such call on its own.

It looks like clockevents_unbind is being exported by mistake as: - it is static; - it is not listed in include/linux/clockchips.h; - EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(clockevents_unbind) follows clockevents_unbind_device() implementation. I think clockevents_unbind_device should be exported instead. This is going to be used to teardown Hyper-V clockevent devices on module unload.

As we use hv_vmbus_con to release channels (see free_channel() in channel_mgmt.c) we need to make sure the work was done before we remove the queue, do that with drain_workqueue(). We also need to avoid handling messages which can (potentially) create new channels, so set vmbus_connection.conn_state = DISCONNECTED at the very beginning of vmbus_exit() and check for that in vmbus_onmessage_work().

On driver shutdown device_obj is being freed twice: 1) In vmbus_free_channels() 2) vmbus_device_release() (which is being triggered by device_unregister() in vmbus_device_unregister().

All channel work queues are named 'hv_vmbus_ctl', this makes them indistinguishable in ps output and makes it hard to link to the corresponding vmbus device.

When an SMP Hyper-V guest is running on top of 2012R2 Server and secondary cpus are sent offline (with echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$cpu/online) the system freeze is observed. This happens due to the fact that on newer hypervisors (Win8, WS2012R2, ...) vmbus channel handlers are distributed across all cpus (see init_vp_index() function in drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c) and on cpu offlining nobody reassigns them to CPU0. Prevent cpu offlining when vmbus is loaded until the issue is fixed host-side. This patch also disables hibernation but it is OK as it is also broken (MCE error is hit on resume). Suspend still works. Tested with WS2008R2 and WS2012R2. Signed-off-by: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: K. Y.

.. after extensive statistical analysis of my G+ polling, I've come to the inescapable conclusion that internet polls are bad. Big surprise. But "Hurr durr I'ma sheep" trounced "I like online polls" by a 62-to-38% margin, in a poll that people weren't even supposed to participate in. Who can argue with solid numbers like that? 5,796 votes from people who can't even follow the most basic directions? In contrast, "v4.0" beat out "v3.20" by a slimmer margin of 56-to-44%, but with a total of 29,110 votes right now. Now, arguably, that vote spread is only about 3,200 votes, which is less than the almost six thousand votes that the "please ignore" poll got, so it could be considered noise. But hey, I asked, so I'll honor the votes.

I've noticed significant locking contention in memory reclaimer around sb_lock inside grab_super_passive(). Grab_super_passive() is called from two places: in icache/dcache shrinkers (function super_cache_scan) and from writeback (function __writeback_inodes_wb). Both are required for progress in memory allocator. Grab_super_passive() acquires sb_lock to increment sb->s_count and check sb->s_instances. It seems sb->s_umount locked for read is enough here: super-block deactivation always runs under sb->s_umount locked for write. Protecting super-block itself isn't a problem: in super_cache_scan() sb is protected by shrinker_rwsem: it cannot be freed if its slab shrinkers are still active. Inside writeback super-block comes from inode from bdi writeback list under wb->list_lock. This patch removes locking sb_lock and checks s_instances under s_umount: generic_shutdown_super() unlinks it under sb->s_umount locked for write. New variant is called trylock_super() and since it only locks semaphore, callers must call up_read(&sb->s_umount) instead of drop_super(sb) when they're done.

Convert the following where appropriate: (1) S_ISLNK(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_symlink(dentry). (2) S_ISREG(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_reg(dentry). (3) S_ISDIR(dentry->d_inode) to d_is_dir(dentry). This is actually more complicated than it appears as some calls should be converted to d_can_lookup() instead. The difference is whether the directory in question is a real dir with a ->lookup op or whether it's a fake dir with a ->d_automount op. In some circumstances, we can subsume checks for dentry->d_inode not being NULL into this, provided we the code isn't in a filesystem that expects d_inode to be NULL if the dirent really *is* negative (ie. if we're going to use d_inode() rather than d_backing_inode() to get the inode pointer). Note that the dentry type field may be set to something other than DCACHE_MISS_TYPE when d_inode is NULL in the case of unionmount, where the VFS manages the fall-through from a negative dentry to a lower layer. In such a case, the dentry type of the negative union dentry is set to the same as the type of the lower dentry. However, if you know d_inode is not NULL at the call site, then you can use the d_is_xxx() functions even in a filesystem. There is one further complication: a 0,0 chardev dentry may be labelled DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE rather than DCACHE_SPECIAL_TYPE. Strictly, this was intended for special directory entry types that don't have attached inodes. The following perl+coccinelle script was used: use strict; my @callers; open($fd, 'git grep -l \'S_IS[A-Z].*->d_inode\' |') || die "Can't grep for S_ISDIR and co. callers"; @callers = <$fd>; close($fd); unless (@callers) { print "No matches\n"; exit(0); } my @cocci = ( '@@', 'expression E;', '@@', '', '- S_ISLNK(E->d_inode->i_mode)', '+ d_is_symlink(E)', '', '@@', 'expression E;', '@@', '', '- S_ISDIR(E->d_inode->i_mode)', '+ d_is_dir(E)', '', '@@', 'expression E;', '@@', '', '- S_ISREG(E->d_inode->i_mode)', '+ d_is_reg(E)' ); my $coccifile = "tmp.sp.cocci"; open($fd, ">$coccifile") || die $coccifile; print($fd "$_\n") || die $coccifile foreach (@cocci); close($fd); foreach my $file (@callers) { chomp $file; print "Processing ", $file, "\n"; system("spatch", "--sp-file", $coccifile, $file, "--in-place", "--no-show-diff") == 0 || die "spatch failed"; } [AV: overlayfs parts skipped] Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Add DCACHE_WHITEOUT_TYPE and provide a d_is_whiteout() accessor function. A d_is_miss() accessor is also added for ordinary cache misses and d_is_negative() is modified to indicate either an ordinary miss or an enforced miss (whiteout).

Introduce some function for getting the inode (and also the dentry) in an environment where layered/unioned filesystems are in operation. The problem is that we have places where we need *both* the union dentry and the lower source or workspace inode or dentry available, but we can only have a handle on one of them. Therefore we need to derive the handle to the other from that. The idea is to introduce an extra field in struct dentry that allows the union dentry to refer to and pin the lower dentry.
