2025-05-23Documentation: hyperv: Update VMBus doc with new features and infoMichael Kelley1-4/+24
Starting in the 6.15 kernel, VMBus interrupts are automatically assigned away from a CPU that is being taken offline. Add documentation describing this case. Also add details of Hyper-V behavior when the primary channel of a VMBus device is closed as the result of unbinding the device's driver. This behavior has not changed, but it was not previously documented.

2024-05-28Documentation: hyperv: Improve synic and interrupt handling descriptionMichael Kelley1-28/+51
Current documentation does not describe how Linux handles the synthetic interrupt controller (synic) that Hyper-V provides to guest VMs, nor how VMBus or timer interrupts are handled. Add text describing the synic and reorganize existing text to make this more clear.
