In the case of X86_PAE, unsigned long is u32, but the physical address type
should be u64. Due to the bug here, the netvsc driver can not load
successfully, and sometimes the VM can panic due to memory corruption (the
hypervisor writes data to the wrong location).

The changes to split ring allocation from open/close, broke
the cleanup of subchannels. This resulted in problems using
uio on network devices because the subchannel was left behind
when the network device was unbound.
The cause was in the disconnect logic which used list splice
to move the subchannel list into a local variable. This won't
work because the subchannel list is needed later during the
process of the rescind messages (relid2channel).
The fix is to just leave the subchannel list in place
which is what the original code did. The list is cleaned
up later when the host rescind is processed.
Without the fix, we have a lot of "hang" issues in netvsc when we
try to change the NIC's MTU, set the number of channels, etc.

Commit d86adf482b ("scsi: storvsc: Enable multi-queue support") removed
the usage of the API in Jan 2017, and the API is not used since then.
netvsc and storvsc have their own algorithms to determine the outgoing
channel, so this API is useless.
And the API is potentially unsafe, because it reads primary->num_sc without
any lock held. This can be risky considering the RESCIND-OFFER message.
Let's remove the API.

Before setting channel->rescind in vmbus_rescind_cleanup(), we should make
sure the channel callback won't run any more, otherwise a high-level
driver like pci_hyperv, which may be infinitely waiting for the host VSP's
response and notices the channel has been rescinded, can't safely give
up: e.g., in hv_pci_protocol_negotiation() -> wait_for_response(), it's
unsafe to exit from wait_for_response() and proceed with the on-stack
variable "comp_pkt" popped. The issue was originally spotted by
Michael Kelley <mikelley@microsoft.com>.
In vmbus_close_internal(), the patch also minimizes the range protected by

This problem shows up in 4.11 when netvsc driver is removed and reloaded.
The problem is that the channel is closed during module removal and the
tasklet for processing responses is disabled. When module is reloaded
the channel is reopened but the tasklet is marked as disabled.
The fix is to re-enable tasklet at the end of close which gets it back
to the initial state.
The issue is less urgent in 4.12 since network driver now uses NAPI
and not the tasklet; and other VMBUS devices are rarely unloaded/reloaded.

With the recent introduction of per-channel tasklet, we need to update
the way we handle the 3 concurrency issues:
1. hv_process_channel_removal -> percpu_channel_deq vs.
vmbus_chan_sched -> list_for_each_entry(..., percpu_list);
2. vmbus_process_offer -> percpu_channel_enq/deq vs. vmbus_chan_sched.
3. vmbus_close_internal vs. the per-channel tasklet vmbus_on_event;
The first 2 issues can be handled by Stephen's recent patch
"vmbus: use rcu for per-cpu channel list", and the third issue
can be handled by calling tasklet_disable in vmbus_close_internal here.
We don't need the original hv_event_tasklet_disable/enable since we
now use per-channel tasklet instead of the previous per-CPU tasklet,
and actually we must remove them due to the side effect now:
vmbus_process_offer -> hv_event_tasklet_enable -> tasklet_schedule will
start the per-channel callback prematurely, cauing NULL dereferencing
(the channel may haven't been properly configured to run the callback yet).

DoS protection conditions were altered in WS2016 and now it's easy to get
-EAGAIN returned from vmbus_post_msg() (e.g. when we try changing MTU on a
netvsc device in a loop). All vmbus_post_msg() callers don't retry the
operation and we usually end up with a non-functional device or crash.
While host's DoS protection conditions are unknown to me my tests show that
it can take up to 10 seconds before the message is sent so doing udelay()
is not an option, we really need to sleep. Almost all vmbus_post_msg()
callers are ready to sleep but there is one special case:
vmbus_initiate_unload() which can be called from interrupt/NMI context and
we can't sleep there. I'm also not sure about the lonely
vmbus_send_tl_connect_request() which has no in-tree users but its external

also appropriate.

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 Hyper-V, performance critical channels use the monitor
mechanism to signal the host when the guest posts mesages
for the host. This mechanism minimizes the hypervisor intercepts
and also makes the host more efficient in that each time the
host is woken up, it processes a batch of messages as opposed to
just one. The goal here is improve the throughput and this is at
the expense of increased latency.
