Here's the big char/misc driver update for 3.20-rc1.
Lots of little things in here, all described in the changelog. Nothing

struct acpi_resource_address and struct acpi_resource_extended_address64 share substracts
just at different offsets. To unify the parsing functions, OSPMs like Linux
need a new ACPI_ADDRESS64_ATTRIBUTE as their substructs, so they can
extract the shared data.
This patch also synchronizes the structure changes to the Linux kernel.
The usages are searched by matching the following keywords:
1. acpi_resource_address
2. acpi_resource_extended_address
3. ACPI_RESOURCE_TYPE_ADDRESS
4. ACPI_RESOURCE_TYPE_EXTENDED_ADDRESS
And we found and fixed the usages in the following files:

Commit 4b2f9abea5 ("staging: hv: convert channel_mgmt.c to not call
osd_schedule_callback")' was written under an assumption that we never receive
Rescind offer while we're still processing the initial Offer request. However,
the issue we fixed in 04a258c162 could be caused by this assumption not
always being true.
In particular, we need to protect against the following:
1) Receiving a Rescind offer after we do queue_work() for processing an Offer
request and before we actually enter vmbus_process_offer(). work.func points
to vmbus_process_offer() at this moment and in vmbus_onoffer_rescind() we do
another queue_work() without a check so we'll enter vmbus_process_offer()
twice.
2) Receiving a Rescind offer after we enter vmbus_process_offer() and
especially after we set >state = CHANNEL_OPEN_STATE. Many things can go
wrong in that case, e.g. we can call free_channel() while we're still using
it.
Implement the required protection by changing work->func at the very end of
vmbus_process_offer() and checking work->func in vmbus_onoffer_rescind(). In
case we receive rescind offer during or before vmbus_process_offer() is done
we set rescind flag to true and we check it at the end of vmbus_process_offer()
so such offer will not get lost.

We support memory hot-add in the Hyper-V balloon driver by hot adding an appropriately
sized and aligned region and controlling the on-lining of pages within that region
based on the pages that the host wants us to online. We do this because the
granularity and alignment requirements in Linux are different from what Windows
expects. The state to manage the onlining of pages needs to be correctly

Make adjustments in computing the balloon floor. The current computation
of the balloon floor was not appropriate for virtual machines with more than

agressively balloon down the guest and leave the guest in an unusable state.

This patch adds proper handling of the vNIC hot removal event, which includes
a rescind-channel-offer message from the host side that triggers vNIC close and
removal. In this case, the notices to the host during close and removal is not
necessary because the channel is rescinded. This patch blocks these unnecessary
messages, and lets vNIC removal process complete normally.

If we fail to send a message to userspace daemon with cn_netlink_send()
there is no need to wait for userspace to reply as it is not going to
happen. This happens when kvp or vss daemon is stopped after a successful
handshake. Report HV_E_FAIL immediately and cancel the timeout job so
host won't receive two failures.
Use pr_warn() for VSS and pr_debug() for KVP deliberately as VSS request
are rare and result in a failed backup. KVP requests are much more frequent
after a successful handshake so avoid flooding logs. It would be nice to
have an ability to de-negotiate with the host in case userspace daemon gets
disconnected so we won't receive new requests. But I'm not sure it is
possible.

In contrast with KVP there is no timeout when communicating with
userspace VSS daemon. In case it gets stuck performing freeze/thaw
operation no message will be sent to the host so it will take very
long (around 10 minutes) before backup fails. Introduce 10 second
timeout using schedule_delayed_work().

In win8 we have a feature that allows for interrupt driven flow management
for host/guest communication. For instance, if the host were blocked because
there was no space available in the ringbuffer, the host could request that the
guest send an interrupt when space becomes available in the ringbuffer (when
the guest drains the ringbuffer).
While this feature was implemented in the guest a while ago, we had not
advertised that the guest supported this feature. This patch advertises
the support to the host.
For pre-win8 hosts, this has no effect since the size of the ringbuffer
control structure has not changed and all changes have been backward
compatible - unused/reserved space has been used to implement this
feature.
In this version of the patch I have cleaned up the commit log based on

Minimize failures in this function by pre-allocating the buffer
for posting messages. The hypercall for posting the message can fail
for a number of reasons:
1. Transient resource related issues
2. Buffer alignment
3. Buffer cannot span a page boundry
We address issues 2 and 3 by preallocating a per-cpu page for the buffer.
Transient resource related failures are handled by retrying by the callers
of this function.
This patch is based on the investigation
done by Dexuan Cui <decui@microsoft.com>.

We should schedule the 5s "timer work" before starting the data transfer,
otherwise, the data transfer code may finish so fast on another
virtual cpu that when the code(fcopy_write()) trying to cancel the 5s
"timer work" can occasionally fail because the "timer work" may haven't
been scheduled yet and as a result the fcopy process will be aborted
wrongly by fcopy_work_func() in 5s.

We try to free two pages when only one has been allocated.
Cleanup path is unlikely, so I haven't found any trace that would fit,
but I hope that free_pages_prepare() does catch it.

The current code posts periodic memory pressure status from a dedicated thread.
Under some conditions, especially when we are releasing a lot of memory into
the guest, we may not send timely pressure reports back to the host. Fix this
issue by reporting pressure in all contexts that can be active in this driver.

Currently the mapping of the relID to channel is done under the protection of a
single spin lock. Starting with ws2012, each channel is bound to a specific VCPU
in the guest. Use this binding to eliminate the spin lock by setting up
per-cpu state for mapping relId to the channel.

By ensuring that we set the callback handler to NULL in the channel close
path on the same CPU that the channel is bound to, we can eliminate this lock
acquisition and release in a performance critical path.

Only ws2012r2 hosts support the ability to reconnect to the host on VMBUS. This functionality
is needed by kexec in Linux. To use this functionality we need to negotiate version 3.0 of the
VMBUS protocol.

The vmbus/hyperv interrupt handling is another complete trainwreck and
probably the worst of all currently in tree.
If CONFIG_HYPERV=y then the interrupt delivery to the vmbus happens
via the direct HYPERVISOR_CALLBACK_VECTOR. So far so good, but:
The driver requests first a normal device interrupt. The only reason
to do so is to increment the interrupt stats of that device
interrupt. For no reason it also installs a private flow handler.
We have proper accounting mechanisms for direct vectors, but of
course it's too much effort to add that 5 lines of code.
Aside of that the alloc_intr_gate() is not protected against
reallocation which makes module reload impossible.
Solution to the problem is simple to rip out the whole mess and
implement it correctly.
First of all move all that code to arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c and
merily install the HYPERVISOR_CALLBACK_VECTOR with proper reallocation
protection and use the proper direct vector accounting mechanism.

Implement the file copy service for Linux guests on Hyper-V. This permits the
host to copy a file (over VMBUS) into the guest. This facility is part of
"guest integration services" supported on the Windows platform.

In V1 version of the patch I have addressed comments from
Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> and Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com>
In V2 version of this patch I did some minor cleanup (making some globals
static). In V4 version of the patch I have addressed all of Olaf's
most recent set of comments/concerns.
In V5 version of the patch I had addressed Greg's most recent comments.
I would like to thank Greg for suggesting that I use misc device; it has
significantly simplified the code.
In V6 version of the patch I have cleaned up error message based on Olaf's
comments. I have also rebased the patch based on the current tip.
In this version of the patch, I have addressed the latest comments from Greg.
