8dd45f2ab0 vmbus: refactor hv_signal_on_read
The function hv_signal_on_read was defined in hyperv.h and
only used in one place in ring_buffer code. Clearer to just
move it inline there.

af82455f7d char/misc patches for 4.12-rc1
Here is the big set of new char/misc driver drivers and features for
 4.12-rc1.
 
 There's lots of new drivers added this time around, new firmware drivers
 from Google, more auxdisplay drivers, extcon drivers, fpga drivers, and
 a bunch of other driver updates.  Nothing major, except if you happen to
 have the hardware for these drivers, and then you will be happy :)
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
 issues.

433e19cf33 Drivers: hv: vmbus: finally fix hv_need_to_signal_on_read()
Commit a389fcfd2c ("Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix signaling logic in
hv_need_to_signal_on_read()")
added the proper mb(), but removed the test "prev_write_sz < pending_sz"
when making the signal decision.

As a result, the guest can signal the host unnecessarily,
and then the host can throttle the guest because the host
thinks the guest is buggy or malicious; finally the user
running stress test can perceive intermittent freeze of
the guest.

This patch brings back the test, and properly handles the
in-place consumption APIs used by NetVSC (see get_next_pkt_raw(),
put_pkt_raw() and commit_rd_index()).

74198eb4a4 Drivers: hv: vmbus: Base host signaling strictly on the ring state
One of the factors that can result in the host concluding that a given
guest in mounting a DOS attack is if the guest generates interrupts
to the host when the host is not expecting it. If these "spurious"
interrupts reach a certain rate, the host can throttle the guest to
minimize the impact. The host computation of the "expected number
of interrupts" is strictly based on the ring transitions. Until
the host logic is fixed, base the guest logic to interrupt solely
on the ring state.

ab028db41c Drivers: hv: vmbus: Implement APIs to support "in place" consumption of vmbus packets
Implement APIs for in-place consumption of vmbus packets. Currently, each
packet is copied and processed one at a time and as part of processing
each packet we potentially may signal the host (if it is waiting for
room to produce a packet).

These APIs help batched in-place processing of vmbus packets.
We also optimize host signaling by having a separate API to signal
the end of in-place consumption. With netvsc using these APIs,
on an iperf run on average I see about 20X reduction in checks to
signal the host.

a389fcfd2c Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix signaling logic in hv_need_to_signal_on_read()
On the consumer side, we have interrupt driven flow management of the
producer. It is sufficient to base the signaling decision on the
amount of space that is available to write after the read is complete.
The current code samples the previous available space and uses this
in making the signaling decision. This state can be stale and is
unnecessary. Since the state can be stale, we end up not signaling
the host (when we should) and this can result in a hang. Fix this
problem by removing the unnecessary check. I would like to thank
Arseney Romanenko <arseneyr@microsoft.com> for pointing out this issue.

Also, issue a full memory barrier before making the signaling descision
to correctly deal with potential reordering of the write (read index)
followed by the read of pending_sz.

046c7911b2 Drivers: hv: vmbus: Enable interrupt driven flow control
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
feedback from Greg KH.

98fa8cf4bc Drivers: hv: Optimize the signaling on the write path
The host has already implemented the "read" side optimizations.
Leverage that to optimize "write" side signaling.

6fdf3b2143 Drivers: hv: Implement routines for read side signaling optimization
Implement functions that will support read-side signaling optimization.
By having the reader indicate the start of the "read" operation and the
"end" of the read operation we can more efficiently handle the signaling
protocol: while the read is in progress, there is no need for the "writer"
to signal the "reader" as new items are put on the read queue.

33be96e47c net/hyperv: Add flow control based on hi/low watermark
In the existing code, we only stop queue when the ringbuffer is full,
so the current packet has to be dropped or retried from upper layer.

This patch stops the tx queue when available ringbuffer is below
the low watermark. So the ringbuffer still has small amount of space
available for the current packet. This will reduce the overhead of
retries on sending.

46a9719136 Staging: hv: move hyperv code out of staging directory
After many years wandering the desert, it is finally time for the
Microsoft HyperV code to move out of the staging directory.  Or at least
the core hyperv bus code, and the utility driver, the rest still have
some review to get through by the various subsystem maintainers.
