[ Upstream commit 25355252607ca288f329ee033f387764883393f6 ]

A cpumask structure on the stack can cause a warning with
CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8192 (e.g. Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04 use this):

drivers/hv//channel_mgmt.c: In function ‘init_vp_index’:
drivers/hv//channel_mgmt.c:702:1: warning: the frame size of 1032 bytes
  is larger than 1024 bytes [-Wframe-larger-than=]

Nowadays it looks most distros enable CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=y, and
hence we can work around the warning by using cpumask_var_t.

<content type='text'>
commit 41e270f6898e7502be9fd6920ee0a108ca259d36 upstream.

With CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y, I always see this warning:
BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000]

Fix the false warning by using get/put_cpu().

Here vmbus_connect() sends a message to the host and waits for the
host's response. The host will deliver the response message and an
interrupt on CPU msg-&gt;target_vcpu, and later the interrupt handler
will wake up vmbus_connect(). vmbus_connect() doesn't really have
to run on the same cpu as CPU msg-&gt;target_vcpu, so it's safe to
call put_cpu() just here.

<content type='text'>
commit 6712cc9c22117a8af9f3df272b4a44fd2e4201cd upstream.

For unsupported device types, the vmbus channel ringbuffer is never
initialized, and therefore reading the sysfs files will return garbage
or cause a kernel OOPS.

[ Upstream commit 572086325ce9a9e348b8748e830653f3959e88b6 ]

clk_evt memory is not being freed when the synic is shutdown
or when there is an allocation error.  Add the appropriate
kfree() call, along with a comment to clarify how the memory
gets freed after an allocation error.  Make the free path
consistent by removing checks for NULL since kfree() and
free_page() already do the check.

<title>Drivers: hv: vmbus: Reset the channel callback in vmbus_onoffer_rescind()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:35949ad3f2d706f39eec089b12b203b159b73cc8</id>
<content type='text'>
commit d3b26dd7cb0e3433bfd3c1d4dcf74c6039bb49fb upstream.

Before setting channel-&gt;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response and notices the channel has been rescinded, can't safely give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() -&gt; 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 &lt;mikelley@microsoft.com&gt;.

In vmbus_close_internal(), the patch also minimizes the range protected by
disabling/enabling channel-&gt;callback_event: we don't really need that for
the whole function.

we have decreased the counter at the beginning of vmbus_process_offer(),
so we mustn't decrease it again.

<id>urn:sha1:6396bb221514d2876fd6dc0aa2a1f240d99b37bb</id>
<content type='text'>
The kzalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kcalloc(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kcalloc(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kzalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kzalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kzalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kzalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

// Fix redundant parens around sizeof().

Pull SCSI updates from James Bottomley:
 "This is mostly updates to the usual drivers: ufs, qedf, mpt3sas, lpfc,
  xfcp, hisi_sas, cxlflash, qla2xxx.

  In the absence of Nic, we're also taking target updates which are
  mostly minor except for the tcmu refactor.

  The only real core change to worry about is the removal of high page
  bouncing (in sas, storvsc and iscsi). This has been well tested and no
  problems have shown up so far"

In C, we don't need such a cast.

With VMBus protocol 5.0, we're able to better support new features, e.g.
running two or more VMBus drivers simultaneously in a single VM -- note:
we can't simply load the current VMBus driver twice, instead, a secondary
VMBus driver must be implemented.

This patch adds the support for the new VMBus protocol, which is available
on new Windows hosts, by:

1) We still use SINT2 for compatibility;
2) We must use Connection ID 4 for the Initiate Contact Message, and for
subsequent messages, we must use the Message Connection ID field in
the host-returned VersionResponse Message.

Notes for developers of the secondary VMBus driver:
1) Must use VMBus protocol 5.0 as well;
2) Must use a different SINT number that is not in use.
3) Must use Connection ID 4 for the Initiate Contact Message, and for
subsequent messages, must use the Message Connection ID field in
the host-returned VersionResponse Message.
4) It's possible that the primary VMBus driver using protocol version 4.0
can work with a secondary VMBus driver using protocol version 5.0, but it's
recommended that both should use 5.0 for new Hyper-V features in the future.
