[PATCH] Drivers: hv: balloon: account for vmbus packet header in max_pkt_size

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

 



Commit adae1e931acd ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: Copy packets sent by Hyper-V
out of the ring buffer") introduced a notion of maximum packet size in
vmbus channel and used that size to initialize a buffer holding all
incoming packet along with their vmbus packet header. hv_balloon uses
the default maximum packet size VMBUS_DEFAULT_MAX_PKT_SIZE which matches
its maximum message size, however vmbus_open expects this size to also
include vmbus packet header. This leads to 4096 bytes
dm_unballoon_request messages being truncated to 4080 bytes. When the
driver tries to read next packet it starts from a wrong read_index,
receives garbage and prints a lot of "Unhandled message: type:
<garbage>" in dmesg.

Allocate the buffer with HV_HYP_PAGE_SIZE more bytes to make room for
the header.

The patch was "[PATCH v2] hv: account for packet descriptor in maximum
packet size". As pointed out by Michael Kelley [1], other hv drivers
already overallocate a lot, and hv_balloon is hopefully the only
remaining affected driver. It's better to just fix hv_balloon. Patch
summary is changed to reflect this new (much smaller) scope.
