[PATCH v4 0/5] pci-hyperv: Fix race condition bugs for fast device hotplug

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

 



Before the guest finishes probing a device, the host may be already starting
to remove the device. Currently there are multiple race condition bugs in the
pci-hyperv driver, which can cause the guest to panic.  The patchset fixes
the crashes.

The patchset also does some cleanup work: patch 3 removes the useless
hv_pcichild_state, and patch 4 reverts an old patch which is not really
useful (without patch 4, it would be hard to make patch 5 clean).

Patch 6 in v3 is dropped for now since it's a feature rather than a fix.
Patch 6 will be split into two patches as suggested by Lorenzo and will be
posted after the 5 patches are accepted first.

The v4 addressed Lorenzo's comments and added Lorenzo' Acks to patch
1, 3 and 5.

The v4 is based on v6.4-rc6, and can apply cleanly to the Hyper-V tree's
hyperv-fixes branch.

The patchset is also availsble in my github branch:

FYI, v3 can be found here:

Please review. Thanks!
