jira LE-3207 feature tools_hv commit-author Shradha Gupta <[email protected]> commit a9c0b33 Allow the KVP daemon to log the KVP updates triggered in the VM with a new debug flag(-d). When the daemon is started with this flag, it logs updates and debug information in syslog with loglevel LOG_DEBUG. This information comes in handy for debugging issues where the key-value pairs for certain pools show mismatch/incorrect values. The distro-vendors can further consume these changes and modify the respective service files to redirect the logs to specific files as needed.

jira LE-3546 commit-author Dexuan Cui <[email protected]> commit b2f9665 Currently storvsc_timeout is only used in storvsc_sdev_configure(), and 5s and 10s are used elsewhere. It turns out that rarely the 5s is not enough on Azure, so let's use storvsc_timeout everywhere. In case a timeout happens and storvsc_channel_init() returns an error, close the VMBus channel so that any host-to-guest messages in the channel's ringbuffer, which might come late, can be safely ignored. Add a "const" to storvsc_timeout.

jira LE-3555 commit-author Michael Kelley <[email protected]> commit 380b75d vmbus_sendpacket_mpb_desc() is currently used only by the storvsc driver and is hardcoded to create a single GPA range. To allow it to also be used by the netvsc driver to create multiple GPA ranges, no longer hardcode as having a single GPA range. Allow the calling driver to specify the rangecount in the supplied descriptor. Update the storvsc driver to reflect this new approach.

jira LE-3555 commit-author Michael Kelley <[email protected]> commit 4f98616 netvsc currently uses vmbus_sendpacket_pagebuffer() to send VMBus messages. This function creates a series of GPA ranges, each of which contains a single PFN. However, if the rndis header in the VMBus message crosses a page boundary, the netvsc protocol with the host requires that both PFNs for the rndis header must be in a single "GPA range" data structure, which isn't possible with vmbus_sendpacket_pagebuffer(). As the first step in fixing this, add a new function netvsc_build_mpb_array() to build a VMBus message with multiple GPA ranges, each of which may contain multiple PFNs. Use vmbus_sendpacket_mpb_desc() to send this VMBus message to the host. There's no functional change since higher levels of netvsc don't maintain or propagate knowledge of contiguous PFNs. Based on its input, netvsc_build_mpb_array() still produces a separate GPA range for each PFN and the behavior is the same as with vmbus_sendpacket_pagebuffer(). But the groundwork is laid for a subsequent patch to provide the necessary grouping.

jira LE-3555 commit-author Michael Kelley <[email protected]> commit 41a6328 Starting with commit dca5161 ("hv_netvsc: Check status in SEND_RNDIS_PKT completion message") in the 6.3 kernel, the Linux driver for Hyper-V synthetic networking (netvsc) occasionally reports "nvsp_rndis_pkt_complete error status: 2".[1] This error indicates that Hyper-V has rejected a network packet transmit request from the guest, and the outgoing network packet is dropped. Higher level network protocols presumably recover and resend the packet so there is no functional error, but performance is slightly impacted. Commit dca5161 is not the cause of the error -- it only added reporting of an error that was already happening without any notice. The error has presumably been present since the netvsc driver was originally introduced into Linux. The root cause of the problem is that the netvsc driver in Linux may send an incorrectly formatted VMBus message to Hyper-V when transmitting the network packet. The incorrect formatting occurs when the rndis header of the VMBus message crosses a page boundary due to how the Linux skb head memory is aligned. In such a case, two PFNs are required to describe the location of the rndis header, even though they are contiguous in guest physical address (GPA) space. Hyper-V requires that two rndis header PFNs be in a single "GPA range" data struture, but current netvsc code puts each PFN in its own GPA range, which Hyper-V rejects as an error. The incorrect formatting occurs only for larger packets that netvsc must transmit via a VMBus "GPA Direct" message. There's no problem when netvsc transmits a smaller packet by copying it into a pre- allocated send buffer slot because the pre-allocated slots don't have page crossing issues. After commit 14ad6ed ("net: allow small head cache usage with large MAX_SKB_FRAGS values") in the 6.14-rc4 kernel, the error occurs much more frequently in VMs with 16 or more vCPUs. It may occur every few seconds, or even more frequently, in an ssh session that outputs a lot of text. Commit 14ad6ed subtly changes how skb head memory is allocated, making it much more likely that the rndis header will cross a page boundary when the vCPU count is 16 or more. The changes in commit 14ad6ed are perfectly valid -- they just had the side effect of making the netvsc bug more prominent. Current code in init_page_array() creates a separate page buffer array entry for each PFN required to identify the data to be transmitted. Contiguous PFNs get separate entries in the page buffer array, and any information about contiguity is lost. Fix the core issue by having init_page_array() construct the page buffer array to represent contiguous ranges rather than individual pages. When these ranges are subsequently passed to netvsc_build_mpb_array(), it can build GPA ranges that contain multiple PFNs, as required to avoid the error "nvsp_rndis_pkt_complete error status: 2". If instead the network packet is sent by copying into a pre-allocated send buffer slot, the copy proceeds using the contiguous ranges rather than individual pages, but the result of the copying is the same. Also fix rndis_filter_send_request() to construct a contiguous range, since it has its own page buffer array. This change has a side benefit in CoCo VMs in that netvsc_dma_map() calls dma_map_single() on each contiguous range instead of on each page. This results in fewer calls to dma_map_single() but on larger chunks of memory, which should reduce contention on the swiotlb. Since the page buffer array now contains one entry for each contiguous range instead of for each individual page, the number of entries in the array can be reduced, saving 208 bytes of stack space in netvsc_xmit() when MAX_SKG_FRAGS has the default value of 17.

jira LE-3555 commit-author Michael Kelley <[email protected]> commit 5bbc644 init_page_array() now always creates a single page buffer array entry for the rndis message, even if the rndis message crosses a page boundary. As such, the number of page buffer array entries used for the rndis message must no longer be tracked -- it is always just 1. Remove the rmsg_pgcnt field and use "1" where the value is needed.
