Changes since v1:
- '[PATCH 2/3] Drivers: hv: vmbus: introduce vmbus_acpi_remove' was dropped in
favor of Jake's '[PATCH v2 1/1] drivers:hv:vmbus drivers:hv:vmbus Allow for
more than one MMIO range for children'. It is required to make unload/load
work on Gen2 instances.
- Added '[PATCH v2 3/5] drivers: hv: Teardown synthetic interrupt controllers
on module unload' to deal with synic.
- Added '[PATCH v2 4/5] clockevents: export clockevents_unbind_device instead
of clockevents_unbind'. It is not for Hyper-V subsystem, however, it is a
pre-requisite for 'PATCH 5/5' and a natural part of this series. CC: Thomas
Gleixner as the subsystem maintainer.
- Added '[PATCH v2 5/5] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Teardown clockevent devices on
module unload' to deal with clockevent devices.
Patches are supposed to be applied on top of current char-misc-next tree.
Original description:
It is possible (since 93e5bd06a953: "Drivers: hv: Make the vmbus driver
unloadable") to unload hv_vmbus driver if no other devices are connected.
1aec169673d7: "x86: Hyperv: Cleanup the irq mess" fixed doulble interrupt
gate setup. However, if we try to unload hv_vmbus and then load it back
crashes in different places of vmbus driver occur on both unload and second
load paths. Address those I saw in my testing.
Not everything is fixed though. MCE was hit once on Generation2 instance and
I neither understand what caused it nor do I know the way to reproduce it.
Anyway, here is the log:
