Srinivasan <kys@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Hi KY, The patch is great! It effectively removes the per-channel workqueue and uses the global vmbus_connection.work_queue to implement natural serialization. It simplifies all the things a lot! Two small suggestions: 1) hv_process_device_removal() -> hv_process_channel_removal(). 2) I think we can revert the patch "Drivers: hv: vmbus: serialize Offer and Rescind offer" first and then this change will be smaller and clearer. :-) -- Dexuan > --- > drivers/hv/channel.c | 8 +++++ > drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c | 63 +++++++++++++------------------------------- > drivers/hv/hv_util.c | 2 +- > drivers/hv/vmbus_drv.c | 24 ++++++++++++----- > include/linux/hyperv.h | 1 + > 5 files changed, 46 insertions(+), 52 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/hv/channel.c b/drivers/hv/channel.c > index bf0cf8f..4a21cd8 100644 > --- a/drivers/hv/channel.c > +++ b/drivers/hv/channel.c > @@ -501,6 +501,14 @@ static int vmbus_close_internal(struct vmbus_channel > *channel) > put_cpu(); > } > > +/* > + * If the channel has been rescinded; process device removal. > + */ > +if (channel->rescind) { > +hv_process_device_removal(channel); > +return 0; > +} > + > /* Send a closing message */ > > msg = &channel->close_msg.msg; > diff --git a/drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c b/drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c > index 0ba6b5c..a208256 100644 > --- a/drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c > +++ b/drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c > @@ -207,27 +207,11 @@ static void percpu_channel_deq(void *arg) > list_del(&channel->percpu_list); > } > > -/* > - * vmbus_process_rescind_offer - > - * Rescind the offer by initiating a device removal > - */ > -static void vmbus_process_rescind_offer(struct work_struct *work) > +void hv_process_device_removal(struct vmbus_channel *channel) > { > -struct vmbus_channel *channel = container_of(work, > - struct vmbus_channel, > - work); > +struct vmbus_channel_relid_released msg; > unsigned long flags; > struct vmbus_channel *primary_channel; > -struct vmbus_channel_relid_released msg; > -struct device *dev; > - > -if (channel->device_obj) { > -dev = get_device(&channel->device_obj->device); > -if (dev) { > -vmbus_device_unregister(channel->device_obj); > -put_device(dev); > -} > -} > > memset(&msg, 0, sizeof(struct vmbus_channel_relid_released)); > msg.child_relid = channel->offermsg.child_relid; > @@ -256,6 +240,7 @@ static void vmbus_process_rescind_offer(struct > work_struct *work) > free_channel(channel); > } > > + > void vmbus_free_channels(void) > { > struct vmbus_channel *channel; > @@ -270,11 +255,8 @@ void vmbus_free_channels(void) > * vmbus_process_offer - Process the offer by creating a channel/device > * associated with this offer > */ > -static void vmbus_process_offer(struct work_struct *work) > +static void vmbus_process_offer(struct vmbus_channel *newchannel) > { > -struct vmbus_channel *newchannel = container_of(work, > -struct vmbus_channel, > -work); > struct vmbus_channel *channel; > bool fnew = true; > bool enq = false; > @@ -340,7 +322,7 @@ static void vmbus_process_offer(struct work_struct > *work) > if (channel->sc_creation_callback != NULL) > channel->sc_creation_callback(newchannel); > > -goto done_init_rescind; > +goto done; > } > > goto err_free_chan; > @@ -381,15 +363,10 @@ static void vmbus_process_offer(struct work_struct > *work) > kfree(newchannel->device_obj); > goto err_free_chan; > } > -done_init_rescind: > -spin_lock_irqsave(&newchannel->lock, flags); > -/* The next possible work is rescind handling */ > -INIT_WORK(&newchannel->work, vmbus_process_rescind_offer); > -/* Check if rescind offer was already received */ > -if (newchannel->rescind) > -queue_work(newchannel->controlwq, &newchannel->work); > -spin_unlock_irqrestore(&newchannel->lock, flags); > + > +done: > return; > + > err_free_chan: > free_channel(newchannel); > } > @@ -515,8 +492,7 @@ static void vmbus_onoffer(struct > vmbus_channel_message_header *hdr) > newchannel->monitor_grp = (u8)offer->monitorid / 32; > newchannel->monitor_bit = (u8)offer->monitorid % 32; > > -INIT_WORK(&newchannel->work, vmbus_process_offer); > -queue_work(newchannel->controlwq, &newchannel->work); > +vmbus_process_offer(newchannel); > } > > /* > @@ -529,6 +505,7 @@ static void vmbus_onoffer_rescind(struct > vmbus_channel_message_header *hdr) > struct vmbus_channel_rescind_offer *rescind; > struct vmbus_channel *channel; > unsigned long flags; > +struct device *dev; > > rescind = (struct vmbus_channel_rescind_offer *)hdr; > channel = relid2channel(rescind->child_relid); > @@ -539,18 +516,16 @@ static void vmbus_onoffer_rescind(struct > vmbus_channel_message_header *hdr) > > spin_lock_irqsave(&channel->lock, flags); > channel->rescind = true; > -/* > - * channel->work.func != vmbus_process_rescind_offer means we are still > - * processing offer request and the rescind offer processing should be > - * postponed.
