After VM requests for channel offers during boot or resume from hibernation, host offers the configured channels and then sends a separate message when all the essential channel offers are delivered. Wait for this message to make this offers request and receipt process synchronous. Without this, user mode can race with VMBus initialization and miss channel offers. User mode has no way to work around this other than sleeping for a while, since there is no way to know when VMBus has finished processing offers. This is in analogy to a PCI bus not returning from probe until it has scanned all devices on the bus. As part of this implementation, some code cleanup is also done for the logic which becomes redundant due to this change. Second patch prints the channels which are not offered when resume happens from hibernation to supply more information to the end user. Changes since v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241018115811.5530-1-namjain@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ * Added Easwar's Reviewed-By tag * Addressed Michael's comments: * Added explanation of all offers delivered message in comments * Removed infinite wait for offers logic, and changed it wait once. * Removed sub channel workqueue flush logic * Added comments on why MLX device offer is not expected as part of this essential boot offer list. I refrained from adding too many details on it as it felt like it is beyond the scope of this patch series and may not be relevant to this. However, please let me know if something needs to be added. * Addressed Saurabh's comments: * Changed timeout value to 10000 ms instead of 10*1000 * Changed commit msg as per suggestions * Added a comment for warning case of wait_for_completion timeout * Added a note for missing channel cleanup in comments and commit msg John Starks (1): Drivers: hv: vmbus: Log on missing offers Naman Jain (1): Drivers: hv: vmbus: Wait for offers during boot drivers/hv/channel_mgmt.c | 55 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------- drivers/hv/connection.c | 4 +-- drivers/hv/hyperv_vmbus.h | 14 +++------- drivers/hv/vmbus_drv.c | 31 +++++++++++----------- 4 files changed, 61 insertions(+), 43 deletions(-) base-commit: 6fb2fa9805c501d9ade047fc511961f3273cdcb5 -- 2.34.1
