* Drivers: hv: vss: Operation timeouts should match host expectationAlex Ng2016-11-071-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | Increase the timeout of backup operations. When system is under I/O load, it needs more time to freeze. These timeout values should also match the host timeout values more closely. Signed-off-by: Alex Ng <alexng@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: K. Y.

* Drivers: hv: utils: Check VSS daemon is listening before a hot backupAlex Ng2016-09-021-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | Hyper-V host will send a VSS_OP_HOT_BACKUP request to check if guest is ready for a live backup/snapshot. The driver should respond to the check only if the daemon is running and listening to requests. This allows the host to fallback to standard snapshots in case the VSS daemon is not running.

| | | | | | | | | | | Multiple VSS_OP_HOT_BACKUP requests may arrive in quick succession, even though the host only signals once. The driver wass handling the first request while ignoring the others in the ring buffer. We should poll the VSS channel after handling a request to continue processing other requests.

* Drivers: hv: utils: fix a race on userspace daemons registrationVitaly Kuznetsov2016-08-311-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Background: userspace daemons registration protocol for Hyper-V utilities drivers has two steps: 1) daemon writes its own version to kernel 2) kernel reads it and replies with module version at this point we consider the handshake procedure being completed and we do hv_poll_channel() transitioning the utility device to HVUTIL_READY state. At this point we're ready to handle messages from kernel. When hvutil_transport is in HVUTIL_TRANSPORT_CHARDEV mode we have a single buffer for outgoing message. hvutil_transport_send() puts to this buffer and till the buffer is cleared with hvt_op_read() returns -EFAULT to all consequent calls. Host<->guest protocol guarantees there is no more than one request at a time and we will not get new requests till we reply to the previous one so this single message buffer is enough. Now to the race. When we finish negotiation procedure and send kernel module version to userspace with hvutil_transport_send() it goes into the above mentioned buffer and if the daemon is slow enough to read it from there we can get a collision when a request from the host comes, we won't be able to put anything to the buffer so the request will be lost. To solve the issue we need to know when the negotiation is really done (when the version message is read by the daemon) and transition to HVUTIL_READY state after this happens. Implement a callback on read to support this. Old style netlink communication is not affected by the change, we don't really know when these messages are delivered but we don't have a single message buffer there.

* Drivers: hv: util: Pass the channel information during the init callK. Y. Srinivasan2016-03-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pass the channel information to the util drivers that need to defer reading the channel while they are processing a request. This would address the following issue reported by Vitaly: Commit 3cace4a61610 ("Drivers: hv: utils: run polling callback always in interrupt context") removed direct *_transaction.state = HVUTIL_READY assignments from *_handle_handshake() functions introducing the following race: if a userspace daemon connects before we get first non-negotiation request from the server hv_poll_channel() won't set transaction state to HVUTIL_READY as (!channel) condition will fail, we set it to non-NULL on the first real request from the server.

* Drivers: hv: utils: Invoke the poll function after handshakeK. Y. Srinivasan2015-12-141-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | When the handshake with daemon is complete, we should poll the channel since during the handshake, we will not be processing any messages.

* Drivers: hv: vss: run only on supported host versionsOlaf Hering2015-12-141-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Backup integration service on WS2012 has appearently trouble to negotiate with a guest which does not support the provided util version. Currently the VSS driver supports only version 5/0. A WS2012 offers only version 1/x and 3/x, and vmbus_prep_negotiate_resp correctly returns an empty icframe_vercnt/icmsg_vercnt. But the host ignores that and continues to send ICMSGTYPE_NEGOTIATE messages. The result are weird errors during boot and general misbehaviour. Check the Windows version to work around the host bug, skip hv_vss_init on WS2012 and older. Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> Signed-off-by: K. Y.

* Drivers: hv: utils: run polling callback always in interrupt contextOlaf Hering2015-12-141-18/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | All channel interrupts are bound to specific VCPUs in the guest at the point channel is created. While currently, we invoke the polling function on the correct CPU (the CPU to which the channel is bound to) in some cases we may run the polling function in a non-interrupt context. This potentially can cause an issue as the polling function can be interrupted by the channel callback function. Fix the issue by running the polling function on the appropriate CPU at interrupt level. Additional details of the issue being addressed by this patch are given below: Currently hv_fcopy_onchannelcallback is called from interrupts and also via the ->write function of hv_utils. Since the used global variables to maintain state are not thread safe the state can get out of sync. This affects the variable state as well as the channel inbound buffer. As suggested by KY adjust hv_poll_channel to always run the given callback on the cpu which the channel is bound to. This avoids the need for locking because all the util services are single threaded and only one transaction is active at any given point in time. Additionally, remove the context variable, they will always be the same as recv_channel. Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> Signed-off-by: K. Y.

* Drivers: hv: vss: switch to using the hvutil_device_state state machineVitaly Kuznetsov2015-05-241-29/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Switch to using the hvutil_device_state state machine from using kvp_transaction.active. State transitions are: -> HVUTIL_DEVICE_INIT when driver loads or on device release -> HVUTIL_READY if the handshake was successful -> HVUTIL_HOSTMSG_RECEIVED when there is a non-negotiation message from the host -> HVUTIL_USERSPACE_REQ after we sent the message to the userspace daemon -> HVUTIL_USERSPACE_RECV after/if the userspace daemon has replied -> HVUTIL_READY after we respond to the host -> HVUTIL_DEVICE_DYING on driver unload In hv_vss_onchannelcallback() process ICMSGTYPE_NEGOTIATE messages even when the userspace daemon is disconnected, otherwise we can make the host think we don't support VSS and disable the service completely. Unfortunately there is no good way we can figure out that the userspace daemon has died (unless we start treating all timeouts as such), add a protection against processing new VSS_OP_REGISTER messages while being in the middle of a transaction (HVUTIL_USERSPACE_REQ or HVUTIL_USERSPACE_RECV state).

* Drivers: hv: vss: process deferred messages when we complete the transactionVitaly Kuznetsov2015-05-241-5/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | In theory, the host is not supposed to issue any requests before be reply to the previous one. In KVP we, however, support the following scenarios: 1) A message was received before userspace daemon registered; 2) A message was received while the previous one is still being processed. In VSS we support only the former. Add support for the later, use hv_poll_channel() to do the job.

* Drivers: hv: kvp,vss: Fast propagation of userspace communication failureVitaly Kuznetsov2014-11-261-1/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we fail to send a message to userspace daemon with cn_netlink_send() there is no need to wait for userspace to reply as it is not going to happen. This happens when kvp or vss daemon is stopped after a successful handshake. Report HV_E_FAIL immediately and cancel the timeout job so host won't receive two failures. Use pr_warn() for VSS and pr_debug() for KVP deliberately as VSS request are rare and result in a failed backup. KVP requests are much more frequent after a successful handshake so avoid flooding logs. It would be nice to have an ability to de-negotiate with the host in case userspace daemon gets disconnected so we won't receive new requests. But I'm not sure it is possible.

| | | | | | | | | | | In contrast with KVP there is no timeout when communicating with userspace VSS daemon. In case it gets stuck performing freeze/thaw operation no message will be sent to the host so it will take very long (around 10 minutes) before backup fails.

* Drivers: hv: Add a new driver to support host initiated backupK. Y. Srinivasan2013-03-151-0/+287
This driver supports host initiated backup of the guest. On Windows guests, the host can generate application consistent backups using the Windows VSS framework. On Linux, we ensure that the backup will be file system consistent. This driver allows the host to initiate a "Freeze" operation on all the mounted file systems in the guest. Once the mounted file systems in the guest are frozen, the host snapshots the guest's file systems. Once this is done, the guest's file systems are "thawed". This driver has a user-level component (daemon) that invokes the appropriate operation on all the mounted file systems in response to the requests from the host. The duration for which the guest is frozen is very short - a few seconds. During this interval, the diff disk is comitted. In this version of the patch I have addressed the feedback from Olaf Herring. Also, some of the connector related issues have been fixed. Signed-off-by: K. Y.
