[PATCH v3 0/6] fix hv_uio_generic open/close

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This set of patches fixes the problem where DPDK applications
using hv_uio_generic driver can not be successfully restarted.

In order to get this working it required small change to uio
to allow for mapping without no-cache. And refactoring of how
ring buffer is setup in vmbus code.

It could be backported as a fix, to 4.19 but that is not
an LTS so probably not worth it.

v3 - fix typo (sent wrong version for v2)

v2 - fix refcount when hv_uio_open fails


Stephen Hemminger (6):
  vmbus: pass channel to hv_process_channel_removal
  vmbus: keep pointer to ring buffer page
  vmbus: split ring buffer allocation from open
  uio: introduce UIO_MEM_IOVA
  hv_uio_generic: map ringbuffer phys addr
  uio_hv_generic: defer opening vmbus until first use
